Easy two ingredient sourdough discard cracker recipe

Ingredients

• 500 g Sourdough Discard (room temperature, from your starter)
• 5 Tbsp Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 1 pinch Salt (optional, enhances flavor)
• 1 tsp Everything‑but‑the‑Bagel Seasoning (sprinkled on one tray)
• 1 tsp Maldon Sea Salt (sprinkled on the other tray)
• 2 Tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (optional, mix into batter for extra umami)

Instructions

1. Measure discard and butter

   Weigh 500 g of sourdough discard and set aside. Measure 5 Tbsp of unsalted butter.

   Time: PT3M

2. Melt butter

   Melt the butter in a microwave‑safe bowl for about 30‑45 seconds, or in a small saucepan over low heat.

   Time: PT2M

3. Combine ingredients

   In the mixing bowl, combine the sourdough discard, melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Stir until a smooth, slightly sticky batter forms.

   Time: PT4M

4. Add optional cheese

   If using, fold in the grated Parmesan cheese now so it melts into the batter.

   Time: PT1M

5. Prepare baking sheets

   Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

   Time: PT2M

6. Spread batter thinly

   Using an offset spatula, spread the batter on each sheet to a uniform thickness of about 250 g per tray (roughly 1 mm thick). The thinner the spread, the crispier the crackers.

   Time: PT8M

7. Season the tops

   Sprinkle Everything‑but‑the‑Bagel seasoning over one tray and Maldon sea salt over the other.

   Time: PT1M

8. First bake

   Place the sheets in a pre‑heated oven and bake at 325°F for 10 minutes.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: 325°F

9. Score the crackers

   Remove the sheets, let cool just enough to handle, and use a knife or pizza cutter to score the batter into squares or desired shapes.

   Time: PT3M

10. Second bake until crisp

    Return the scored sheets to the oven and bake for an additional 35 minutes, or until the crackers are golden‑brown and completely crisp.

    Time: PT35M

    Temperature: 325°F

11. Cool and store

    Transfer the baked sheets to a cooling rack. Once completely cool, break along the scored lines and store in an airtight container.

    Time: PT5M
