Ingredients
300 Whole Wheat Flour
160 Water
75 Butter
2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
1 tbsp Sugar
3 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Salt
Mixed herbs (1 tsp)
Peprika (1/4 tsp)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F) for a fan oven or 200°C (400°F) for a conventional oven.
2
Combine the wholemeal flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, paprika, and mixed herbs in a mixing bowl.
3
Add the butter pieces to the flour mixture. Rub them together with your hands until the texture resembles coarse sand or breadcrumbs and no large pieces of butter remain.
4
Create a well in the center of the mixture. Pour in the water and vegetable oil, then mix until a smooth dough forms.
5
Transfer the dough to a surface and knead it gently for about 2 minutes to ensure everything is well combined.
6
Take about one-third of the dough and roll it out onto a sheet of baking paper until it is very thin, ideally less than 2 mm (1/16").
7
Cut the dough into your desired shapes. Remove any excess dough, and use a fork to prick the shapes all over, which helps them bake evenly.
8
Transfer the shapes on the paper to a baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until they begin to brown.
9
Allow the crackers to cool. Once cooled, test them; if they are still soft in the middle, return them to the baking tray and bake for an additional 5 minutes until firm.
