Description

These Rosemary Sea Salt Crackers are a crispy, aromatic snack infused with fresh rosemary and coarse sea salt. Perfect for pairing with your favorite cheeses, dips, or as a standalone crunchy treat, they are easy to make from scratch with simple ingredients and baked to golden perfection.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (finely chopped)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup water

Topping

  • Extra sea salt for topping (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 500°F to prepare for baking the crackers.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, coarse sea salt, sugar, and finely chopped fresh rosemary until evenly combined.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the water and olive oil into the dry mixture until a fully combined dough forms.
  4. Prepare Dough Surface: Turn the sticky dough out onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper that is slightly larger than your baking sheet.
  5. Roll Dough: Roll the dough thinly to about 1/8th of an inch thickness, adding a little flour as needed to prevent sticking, making sure the thickness is as even as possible.
  6. Trim Edges: Trim the thinner edges of the dough to avoid burning, as these tend to cook faster than the rest of the crackers.
  7. Cut and Season: Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough into square crackers. Brush them lightly with water, sprinkle extra sea salt if desired, and prick each square a few times with a fork to prevent puffing.
  8. Transfer and Adjust Oven Temperature: Place the parchment paper with the cut dough on a baking sheet and immediately reduce the oven temperature to 425°F.
  9. Bake: Bake for 12-17 minutes, or until the crackers turn a light golden brown, indicating they are crisp and ready.

Notes

  • For best results, try to keep the dough thickness even to ensure uniform baking.
  • Adding extra sea salt on top before baking enhances the flavor and adds a pleasant crunch.
  • Watch edges closely while baking to prevent them from burning due to their thinner size.
  • Store cooled crackers in an airtight container to maintain crispness for several days.
  • You can substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend if desired, but texture may vary.
