Cook Time 12 minutesmins
Total Time 25 minutesmins
Ingredients
2cupsflour
1teaspoonbaking powder
1/4cupcocoa powder(I use Ghirardelli's)
pinch of salt
2/3cupwarm water
1/3cupolive oil
Toppings
Sea Salt
Raw Sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400.
Grease two baking sheets (13x9-inches) with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt.
Combine water and olive oil in a separate bowl; whisk together until combined.
Add oil mixture to the flour mixture.
Using a wooden spoon, stir it all together until you get a smooth ball of dough.
Cut the dough in half; cover one of the dough pieces with a kitchen towel and set aside.
Take the other dough-ball and, using your hands and fingers, flatten the dough on the bottom of one of the previously prepared baking sheets. Get the dough as flat and as thin as possible. I find that using a tall glass as a rolling pin works best.
Take the other dough-ball and repeat the process, pressing the dough on the bottom of the second baking sheet.
Sprinkle with either sea salt or raw sugar.
Using a pizza cutter, cut the dough into squares.
Bake for 12 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool completely in baking sheets.
Serve.
Notes
RECIPE SOURCE: DIETHOODI find it best to bake the crackers one baking sheet at a time.For a sweeter taste, add a tablespoon of honey to the dough. The dough will be sticky - flour your hands and/or the rolling pin.The crackers get crunchier as they sit longer. I like them best the day after.
