Tasteful Tuesday

Today's recipe is for snack crackers. I know, you can buy these fairly inexpensively from the store but believe me, it is litteraly less than 10 minutes to get these into the oven and you know exactly what is going into them. You can use white or wheat flour. These ones were made with white flour since it was the first time I made them. But I have made them with wheat flour and they were still great. Just remember to roll until they are very thin. My kids demolished the whole pan in minutes!
Homemade Crackers
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup warm water
1/3 cup olive oil

Preheat oven to 400. Mix together. Roll out thinly between a piece of parchment and wax paper(divide into 2 balls if you need to to get them thin). Leave on parchment paper and transfer to baking sheet. Cut into squares (no need to seperate, they will shrink as they bake) and spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with sea salt and any other desired spices. Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned and crispy. If they are getting brown but aren't crispy, turn oven off and let them sit in there for a few minutes.
