About this dish

Whole wheat flour, honey and cinnamon go into a dough rolled to about 2 mm, so the crackers come out harder than a thick sugar cookie and snap rather than bend.

They work plain or crushed for a pie crust. Fresh from the oven they still feel soft; the low bake and the drying time in the switched-off oven are what make them crisp; judge them only once fully cool.

Instructions

5 steps
  1. 1

    Mix flours, sugar, salt, cinnamon and baking powder.

    Separately whisk egg, oil, honey and 30 ml dough milk; stir into the dry mix. Add remaining dough milk only as needed for a stiff but cohesive dough.

  2. 2

    Gather gently, wrap and refrigerate 60 minutes until firm.

  3. 3

    Preheat to 150°C.

    Divide the dough in half and roll each on parchment to about 2 mm thick. Transfer to two trays and brush lightly with the brushing milk.

  4. 4

    Bake 10 minutes, swapping rack positions and rotating at 5 minutes.

    Cut into roughly 7.5×5 cm rectangles without separating, then bake 18-20 minutes more.

  5. 5

    Switch off the oven, open the door for 5 minutes, then close it for 20 minutes.

    Transfer to a rack and cool at least 15 minutes until completely cold and crisp before separating and storing.

Tips

If two trays do not fit with airflow, bake and dry them separately, allowing extra oven time.
