Notes

  • The thinner you spread the discard, the crispier the crackers will be.
  • Use different toppings for variety—try rosemary, za’atar, or even grated cheese.
  • If the center isn’t fully crisp, remove the edges and return the center pieces to bake a few minutes longer.
  • Great for using up discard from any sourdough baking project.
