Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 tablespoon chilled butter
  • ¼ teaspoon oregano
  • ½ tablespoon pizza seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • salt to taste
  • chilled water as needed

Instructions

  • To a mixing bowl add wheat flour, then butter. Add pizza seasoning and oregano. If you don't have pizza seasoning - combine chilli flakes and mixed herbs (which comes with pizza when we buy outside) and then add it.
  • Add required salt and oil. Mix well until it resembles bread crumbs. Then add chill water little by little.
  • Knead to a stiff dough just like our chapati dough. Set aside for 15 minutes.
  • Then knead again and roll over a baking sheet.
  • Cut the edges to form a square, remove the edges. Prick with fork. While you do this preheat oven at 200 deg C for 10 minutes.
  • Cut into small squares. Lay butter paper on the tray. Arrange the crackers on butter paper.
  • Bake in preheated oven at 200 deg C for 12- 15 minutes or until golden. Do not over bake then the crackers will become hard.
  • Cool on wire rack then store in a clean dry airtight container. Enjoy Pizza Crackers!

Notes

  • Roll Thin – I usually roll the dough very thin so the crackers become evenly crisp after baking. Thick crackers may stay soft in centre.
  • Prick Well – You can prick the crackers using fork before baking. This helps to avoid puffing while baking in oven.
  • Use Butter Paper – I have used butter paper while rolling which makes the process easy and prevents sticking.
  • Baking – Crackers may brown quickly during last few minutes so keep checking often. Remove once edges turn golden.
  • Cool Completely – Let the crackers cool fully before storing. Warm crackers may become soft because of moisture inside container.
