Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 6-7 Tablespoons water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • plus a little more salt and butter for the tops

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter and mix it well with the flour and salt.
  2. Add the tablespoons of water slowly, one at a time, and mix them in well. Don't add too much water so the dough is too sticky. You want a nice smooth dough.

  3. Roll out the dough until it very thin, about 1/8in. I do this directly on the baking stone. You can also roll out the dough on a floured surface and then transfer the rolled out dough to a greased baking sheet or a baking stone. You can cover the stone in parchment paper if you don't want to grease it.

  4. Score with a pizza cutter. Brush the tops very lightly with butter and sprinkle with a little salt. You can leave out this step if you want unsalted crackers. Bake these in the oven at 400F for about 15 minutes. They will harden more once they start to cool.

  5. Enjoy these plain or with a dip.
