How to make lavash crackers in a traditional oven

- whole wheat flour, multigrain-flour, or gluten free flour
- white sesame seeds
- nigella seeds
- olive oil
- warm water
- salt
- red chili powder
In a large stand mixer bowl, Add in the flour , salt and red chili powder and give a quick whisk. As it is mixing, pour in the oil and water. Mix until the flour is incorporated and forms a moist dough. This should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Once the dough is together, turn it out onto your counter and knead 4 to 5 times until it forms a soft ball. Place a bowl or kitchen towel and let it rest for few minutes .
Using your hands or a rolling pin, roll the dough out until it forms a ⅛” thin sheet.
Cut the dough into strips using a pastry wheel, pizza cutter, or knife. Place the strips about a 1/2 inch apart on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle the chips with white sesame seeds and nigella seeds evenly and give a final roll with the rolling pin. Brush or spray some olive oil.
Place the baking sheet in the middle rack of the oven and bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until they are a golden brown color around the edges. Don’t undercook the crackers or they can become soggy.
When they are crisping around the edges, take the crackers out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Finally, transfer them to a wire rack with a spatula to allow them to completely cool.
Serve the crackers with your favorite hummus recipe, like our hummus trio recipe, or our edamame dip.

This turned out really good! Thanks
Soniya Saluja says
Thanks for sharing your feedback with us
Sarah Alton says
These turned out brilliantly, though I didn't use wholemeal flour. Made them to accompany a mezze platter I served yesterday, and they were delicious. Eating leftovers today, and they're still super-crunchy after storing them in tupperware overnight. These are definitely going in my "make again" folder.
Adrienne Houghton says
Can I make these a day ahead of needing them?
Soniya Saluja says
Hey Adrienne, yes you can make them ahead if time
Nancy Tripp says
Hi. The procedure says to mix the whole grain flour with the all purpose flour but I don’t see the AP amount in the ingredients list. How much AP flour? Thanks.
Soniya Saluja says
Hi Nancy, it's multigrain flour. It's a typo mistake.
Geeta Kulkarni says
If I want to use multigrain flour by mixing all flours together what should be the ratio of all flours?
Soniya Saluja says
Hi Geeta, we use a ready-made multi grain atta. If you are using home milled grains. 1/2cup regular aata and add (1tbsp of each) other flours .

These crackers are just what I need for my charcuterie boards! I love how easy they are and not having to purchase store bought crackers as they have everything in them but the kitchen sink. How do you think these would taste with a cinnamon sugar topping for a sweeter type dip?
