Ingredients
- 150 grams all-purpose flour, about 1 cup
- 150 grams whole wheat flour, about 1 cup
- 80 grams cocoa powder, about 1 cup, see recipe notes
- 6 grams baking soda, about 1 teaspoon
- 3 grams salt, about 1/2 teaspoon
- 113 grams unsalted butter, softened, about 8 Tablespoons
- 240 grams brown sugar, about 1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons, packed
- 110 grams sourdough discard, about 1/2 cup, see recipe notes
- 100 grams honey, about 1/3 cup
- 15 grams vanilla extract, about 1 Tablespoon
Instructions
-
Dry Ingredients: To a small bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
-
Wet Ingredients: Whip together the butter and brown sugar with a hand mixer until mixed. Add the sourdough discard and honey. Mix until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix together again.
-
Mix: Pour the dry ingredients on top of the wet ingredients and mix together with the hand mixer until the dough clumps together. If the dough is crumbly, add a little bit of milk until the dough comes together. It should not be sticky but will clump together to form a ball. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour until it clumps together.
-
Chill Dough: Shape the dough into two equal sized discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
-
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Roll Out: Line a half sheet pan (18 by 13 inches) with parchment paper. Take the first disc of dough and roll out on a floured countertop to about 15 by 11 inches. If the dough sticks, add more flour to the bottom and top. Use a biscuit cutter for round crackers or a pizza cutter for rectangles. Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces. Place each cracker on the baking sheet. Take a fork and pierce the dough a few times on each piece. Repeat with the other disc of dough.
-
Bake: Bake crackers at 375ºF for 12-15 minutes until crisp on the edges. Pull out of the oven. Let the crackers cool completely before enjoying!
Notes
Storage: Store crackers in an airtight container to retain crispness.
