Crispy Homemade Crackers

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 6 tablespoons butter, cold, cut into small cubes
• ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
• 4 tablespoons water
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse sand.

3. 3

   Add water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring until a shaggy dough just comes together.

4. 4

   Roll dough between two sheets of parchment paper until very thin, about 1/16 inch.

5. 5

   Transfer to baking sheet. Prick all over with a fork to prevent puffing.

6. 6

   Bake 12–15 minutes until edges are golden brown and surface looks dry.

7. 7

   Remove from oven. Cool on the sheet 5 minutes, then break into irregular shards.
