Step 1
Mix dry ingredients, make well, stir in wet. Divide in half, roll out 3mm / 1/8" thick. Transfer to paper, sprinkle with sesame and flakes, roll to 2mm / 1/12". Cut into 5cm / 2" pieces, transfer to tray, spray with oil. Bake 12 min, rearrange to colour evenly, bake 8 to 10 min until light golden.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F (180°C fan-forced).
Step 3
Mix the flour, sesame and salt in a bowl using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Make a well in the centre then add the water and oil. Using the handle of the spatula to mix until the flour is incorporated.
Step 4
Roll out #1 Sprinkle the counter lightly with flour. Scrape the dough out then knead a few times to bring it together into a ball. Cut in half. Roll one piece out to 3mm / 1/8" thin oval shape. (Note 3)
Step 5
Sprinkle - Place a sheet of baking paper (parchment) on a cutting board. Transfer the rolled out dough onto the paper. Sprinkle with half the sesame and half the salt flakes. Roll out even thinner on the paper to 2mm / 1/12" (thinner = crispier).
Step 6
Cut into 5cm / 2" squares using a pizza cutter or knife (Note 4). You'll have smaller pieces on the edge and corners, that's fine. Leave the pieces as is, don't try to move them (so thin, it's too hard!). Slide the paper onto a tray. Repeat with the other piece of dough.
Step 7
Bake - Spray with oil. Bake both trays together for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven. Re-arrange to move the more golden pieces on the outer rim of the tray to the centre (so they cook evenly). Bake for a further 8 to 10 minutes or until all the pieces are light golden (white = not crispy!).
Step 8
Serving - Remove from the oven and leave the crackers to cool on the tray (~20 minutes). Make dip or prepare cheese platter worthy of your homemade crackers. Then attack!
