Lavosh Crackers

Ingredients

• 1 cup white whole wheat flour (120g)
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour (72g)
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (white or black)
• 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup warm water
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. 2

   Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

3. 3

   Lightly sprinkle flour on a work surface for kneading and rolling out the dough.

4. 4

   Add flours, sesame seeds, salt and sugar to a large bowl and whisk to combine.

5. 5

   Combine warm water, olive oil, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Slowly warm water mixture to flour mixture, using a fork to combine.

6. 6

   Gather the dough up in your hands, pressing it to form a ball. Divide dough in half.

7. 7

   Transfer one half of dough to prepared work surface and knead for about 30 seconds and flatten into a rough rectangle. With a rolling pin, roll dough into a thin, even rectangle between 1/16" and 1/8" thick.

8. 8

   Leave dough whole or cut into your desired shape using a sharp knife, pizza wheel, or pasta cutter (my choice) if you want a sculptured edge.

9. 9

   Transfer dough whole or in whatever shape you've cut to your parchment lined baking sheet - leaving space between crackers if you've cut them up.

10. 10

    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes - or up to 20 minutes if you're baking the dough whole - until the crackers are crisp and golden brown. Remove from the oven to cool completely.

11. 11

    Meanwhile, as crackers bake, repeat kneading, rolling and cutting the remaining dough and bake once you've removed the first batch.

12. 12

    Serve or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
