Daring Bakers Challenge- Crackers

Our July 2012 Daring Bakers’ Host was Dana McFarland and she challenged us to make homemade crackers! Dana showed us some techniques for making crackers and encouraged to use our creativity to make each cracker our own by using ingredients we love.




I will freely admit to only doing roughly half of this Challenge. I mean, I made 2 different versions of crackers, but i used one recipe and one rolling method. They turned out not bad at all either.



These, and the top photo, are Olive Oil and Sea Salt crackers. Because that is our absolute favorite cracker. And honestly, these reminded me of thinner crostini crackers.





Whereas these are Rosemary and Sea Salt crackers. When these were baking, the entire house smelled like rosemary. Delicious.

The recipe I used was the Pepper Jack and Oregano one, minus the pepper jack cheese and the oregano. I simply cut the dough in half, mixed rosemary into one half and a little extra sea salt and olive oil, along with a bit more flour, into the other half.

Very rustic and tasty.
