Buckwheat Crackers With Sesame
- 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
- 1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup buckwheat flour
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or canola oil
- 4 to 5 tablespoons water, as needed
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees with the racks positioned inside in the middle and upper third.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift together the flours.
- Mix together the flours, sesame seeds and salt in a mixing bowl, in the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a food processor fitted with a steel blade.
- If using a mixing bowl, add the oil and cut in with a fork until the mixture is crumbly.
- In a stand mixer, mix at medium speed; in a food processor, pulse until crumbly.
- Add the water, and mix with your hands (or at medium speed in a mixer or food processor) until you can gather the dough into a ball.
- Lightly dust your work surface, and roll out the dough, or roll out between pieces of parchment, plastic or wax paper.
- Cut into desired shapes -- squares, diamonds or cookie-cutter shapes -- and place on the baking sheet, close together but not touching.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes until lightly browned, switching the sheet trays halfway through from front to back and top to middle.
- Remove from the heat, and allow to cool on racks.
