Rustic Olive Oil Crackers Food

BLACK PEPPER AND THYME OLIVE OIL CRACKERS

Steps:

• Add flour, pepper, thyme, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and blend together.
• Pour in olive oil and pulse a few times so dough begins coming together.
• With the food processor on, pour in the milk and blend until a loose ball is formed.
• Remove dough from food processor and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill dough in refrigerator for about 1 hour.
• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Split dough into two portions. Using one portion at a time, on a lightly floured surface, roll dough out into a large rectangle as thinly and evenly as you possibly can. The thinner you can get it, the better as it will result in a crispier cracker.
• Lightly brush dough with egg wash and sprinkle sea salt on top.
• Bake for 15-22 minutes, until crackers are getting crispy and turning golden. Check after 15 minutes. If crackers are still pliable and not totally crispy, return to oven, being sure to re-check every 2 minutes.
• Let cool completely before breaking into pieces of whatever size you choose.

OLIVE OIL CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment. Sift together the flours and the salt. Combine the water, eggs and 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a measuring cup. Place the flour mixture in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, and turn on the processor. Add the liquids with the machine running, and process until the dough comes together. The dough will be soft. If it seems wet, add another tablespoon of flour.
• Remove from the food processor, and wrap in plastic. Let rest 15 minutes. Divide into two portions, and roll out each portion into thin sheets. Brush the top of the sheets with the remaining olive oil, and sprinkle with Parmesan and za'atar. Using the rolling pin, gently press the topping into the surface. Cut the dough into squares or rectangles, and transfer to the baking sheets.
• Bake 15 minutes until lightly browned and crisp.
