My cousin sister loves baking too and she has been baking with sourdough recently also. There is usually plenty of sourdough discards and she is exploring ideas for other items to bake besides bread. She introduced me to these sourdough crackers.  I am so happy with the result. It is a really delicious treat that is not difficult to prepare.

Recipe adapted from here with some modification.

    1. Hi, you can replace with all plain flour.

      You may want to try this recipe, use rolling pin to roll thin instead.

  6. Hi! Just want to let you know that my family really love this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing. Can I ask you if I use more Rye flour in the feeding, would the discard taste more sour hence I should add more salt in this recipe to cover it? Thanks

    1. Hi, thanks for trying this recipe and your kind feedback. Glad to hear that your family love it. I have not tried to use rye flour to feed. Hence, I am not sure the outcome. However, you can use more rye flour in the crackers.

      Cheers :)
