Ingredients: 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour; 1 teaspoon salt; 3/4 cup water; 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided; 1 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme; 3/4 teaspoon sea or kosher salt

These homemade crackers are decidedly light and crispy. An addictive snack on their own, they also pair well with a sharp white cheddar. —Jessica Wirth, Charlotte, North Carolina

Ingredients

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
1 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
3/4 teaspoon sea or kosher salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, whisk flours and salt. Gradually add water and 1/4 cup oil, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Divide dough into three portions.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion of dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 1-1/2-in. round cookie cutter. Place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Prick each cracker with a fork; brush lightly with remaining oil. Mix thyme and sea salt; sprinkle over crackers.
Bake 9-11 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned.

Crunchy, salty crackers. If I knew years ago how easy it was make crackers, geez!I'll be making these again! With as popular as it is to serve Charcuterie, these are a MUST-HAVE!

Tasty, quick, and easy. I did not have fresh thyme, so I used about 1 1/2 teaspoons of dried, and added it to the flour mixture before adding the water and oil. I think they might be better with less thyme and/or with the thyme on top as written.
