These crispy sourdough discard crackers are a quick and easy snack packed with savory everything bagel seasoning. Perfect for snacking or entertaining, they turn sourdough discard into a crunchy, flavorful treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) sourdough discard, unfed or fed
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) everything bagel seasoning (sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion, garlic flakes, salt)
  • ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt
  • Optional: pinch of dried rosemary or thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a bowl, combine sourdough discard, all-purpose flour, olive oil, and salt. Stir until a rough dough forms. It should feel soft but not sticky. If too wet, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time.
  3. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for about 1 minute to bring it together.
  4. Roll the dough as thin as you can without tearing—about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick.
  5. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the rolled dough. Gently press the seasoning into the dough with the rolling pin to help it stick.
  6. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to score the dough into squares or rectangles about 2 inches (5 cm) wide.
  7. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy. Watch the edges closely to prevent burning.
  8. Let the crackers cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to crisp further.

Notes

Roll the dough very thin (about 1/8 inch) for the best crispness. Press the seasoning gently into the dough to prevent it from burning or falling off. Watch the crackers closely near the end of baking to avoid over-browning. Store cooled crackers in an airtight container to maintain crunch. Freeze leftovers in a sealed bag and reheat before serving.
