Yield 60 - 1" square crackers

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups organic rye flour
½ cup organic soft white wheat flour
1 tsp BioReal organic dry yeast
1 TBSP organic sorghum
2 tsp sea salt or Himalayan salt
¼ tsp red pepper
1 TBSP organic sesame seeds
1 TBSP organic chia seeds
1 TBSP organic flax seeds
1/3 cup grapeseed oil (or vegetable oil)
1 cup finely chopped medium onion
2 TBSP water
1 organic egg, room temperature

Steps:

Preheat oven: 375 degrees F
In a mixing bowl measure all dry ingredients and combine well with a dough whisk . In a separate bowl stir together the egg, oil, and chopped onion. Slowly pour the onion mixture into the dry mixture, then whisk vigorously until well blended. The dough will be moist. Scrape the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and roll out dough using a 1/8" rolling pin into a rectangle shape. Sprinkle rye flour as needed to keep the rolling pin from sticking to the dough.
Take the baking sheet and place on top of the dough on parchment paper (holding parchment paper on each end), then flip it upside down to transfer easily. Peel off parchment paper. Place into preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes (click here for a great kitchen timer), then turn off the oven. Remove the baking sheet to a heat safe surface and while still soft, cut the dough into squares (or your desired shape) using a pastry wheel . Return the baking sheet to the still warm oven and let sit for 10 minutes for a dry, crispy cracker consistency.
