Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard
  • 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons (3045 ml) water
  • ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt
  • 2 tablespoons (20 g) everything bagel seasoning
  • Optional: flaky sea salt for sprinkling
  • Optional: pinch of ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt, and a pinch of ground black pepper if using. Stir to blend evenly.
  2. Stir in 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard and 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil. Gradually add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) water, mixing until the dough comes together. Adjust water or flour as needed for consistency.
  3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3-4 times to form a smooth ball. Avoid over-kneading.
  4. Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Roll the dough out on the parchment paper as thin as possible, about 1/16 inch (1.5 mm) thick.
  7. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons (20 g) everything bagel seasoning evenly over the dough and press it firmly into the surface.
  8. Cut the dough into desired shapes using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  9. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top for extra crunch.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking after 15 minutes until edges are golden and crackers are crisp.
  11. Let crackers cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to crisp fully.
  12. If needed, reheat crackers in the oven for 1-2 minutes to crisp further, watching closely to avoid burning.

Notes

Roll dough very thin (1/16 inch) for crispiness. Rest dough before rolling to relax gluten. Press seasoning firmly into dough to prevent falling off. Watch oven closely after 15 minutes to avoid burning. Store crackers in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
