These crispy sourdough discard crackers are a simple, tasty way to turn sourdough discard into a crunchy, tangy snack seasoned with everything seasoning. Perfect for snacking or serving alongside dips and cheese boards.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard (unfed or fed, room temperature)
  • 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour (can substitute with whole wheat or gluten-free blend)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt
  • 2 tablespoons (20 g) everything seasoning (sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, sea salt)
  • Optional: pinch of black pepper or smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard with 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil, and ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Knead lightly in the bowl with your hands until a cohesive ball forms, about 1-2 minutes. If too sticky, sprinkle more flour 1 tablespoon at a time.
  4. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and roll out as thin as possible, about 1/16 inch (1.5 mm) thickness.
  5. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons (20 g) everything seasoning evenly over the dough and gently press it in with the rolling pin.
  6. Score the dough into 2-inch (5 cm) squares or rectangles using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  7. Transfer the scored dough with parchment onto the baking sheet if rolled elsewhere.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, checking at 15 minutes for golden edges and firm crackers.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet for 15-20 minutes.
  10. Break apart crackers along scored lines. If some crackers are soft, return to oven for 3-5 more minutes.

Notes

Roll dough as thin as possible (1/16 inch) for best crispiness. Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking. Score dough before baking for uniform crackers. Cool completely before breaking for best snap. Optional to add herbs, cheese, or spices for variations. Store in airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week or freeze up to 3 months.
