These crispy sourdough discard crackers are a quick and easy zero-waste snack, featuring fresh rosemary and flaky sea salt for a flavorful, crunchy bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard, room temperature
  • 1 cup (120 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
  • 23 tablespoons (3045 ml) water
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine sourdough discard, all-purpose flour, olive oil, and finely chopped fresh rosemary. Add garlic powder if using.
  3. Gradually stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of water until the dough forms a firm, slightly sticky ball.
  4. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out as thin as possible, about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
  5. Cut the dough into squares or rectangles about 2 inches (5 cm) wide using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  6. Transfer the cut crackers to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
  7. Sprinkle the tops with flaky sea salt.
  8. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, checking after 15 minutes to prevent burning, until edges are golden and crackers are crisp.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes to crisp up further.
  10. Store cooled crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.

Notes

Roll dough thinly (about 1/8 inch) for maximum crispness. Watch oven closely after 15 minutes to avoid burning. Use fresh rosemary for best flavor; dried rosemary can be used if chopped finely. Store crackers in airtight container to maintain crispness. Freeze for up to 3 months and reheat at 300°F for 5-7 minutes to re-crisp.
