How to make spelt oregano crackers
These spelt crackers are so quick and easy and you can experiment to find the exact combination of cracker thickness and baking time.
- For this recipe you will need only spelt or whole grain spelt flour, both nutritiously rich and full of fibre. First, combine flour with, baking powder, salt and dried oregano in one bowl. Add cubed butter and rub it into the flour.
- Pour the water and work with your hands to make a dough. Leave the dough in the fridge for about 20 minutes then roll on lightly floured work surface to 1-2 mm thickness.
- We love small bite-size crackers so we used small round cookie cutter to cut out the shapes. With this dough we made 50 small crackers. Prick each cracker with for 2 times then transfer to baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake for about 5-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Once baked transfer crackers to one plate to cool.

- Transfer crackers one by one onto a baking sheet and prick each cracker with fork a few times to prevent them from puffing up while baking. Bake for about 5-6 minutes or until crackers start to become lightly brown. Baking time will depend on how thin your crackers are. Transfer the crackers to a wire rack to cool completely.
