Oyster crackers

Ingredients:

• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1 teaspoon of sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tbsp (30 g) butter, chilled
• 1/3 cup cold water + more as needed
• Table salt to taste

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, sugar and baking powder.
3. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the bowl with flour.
4. Using your hands, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
5. Add water and knead the dough to form a ball.
6. Cover the bowl and let sit for 15 minutes.
7. Roll the dough out to a thickness of 0.3 cm or as thin as possible. (I made a few thicker crackers, and they didn't turn out as well.)
8. Using cookie cutters, a ravioli cutter, or a table knife, cut out tiny shapes (hexagons, squares, or any other shapes) from the dough.
9. Place the cut out dough shapes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat, leaving some space between them.
10. Bake for 15 minutes or until crackers begin to brown on the bottom.
11. Turn off the oven and open the door slightly.
12. Leave the crackers in the oven for 20 minutes to cool.
13. Sprinkle cooled crackers with salt.
