Ingredients

• 100 g sourdough discard
• 1/2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 45 g all purpose flour
• 1/8 tsp baking soda
• sesame seeds optional

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 350F.
• Mix together sourdough discard, olive oil and salt. Add baking soda and flour and combine until a dough forms.

• Brush the top with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional) and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crackers have puffed up and turned golden brown. Let cool and enjoy!
