Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour / maida
  • ½ cup chickpea flour / besan
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp red chilly powder
  • ½ tsp red chilly flakes
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 6 tbsp olive oil
  • 5-6 tbsp water

Instructions

  • In a large bowl add all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, sugar, salt, thyme, chilly powder, chilly flakes, garlic powder, onion powder and mix well.
  • Then add olive oil and mix well into the dough. Then add 1 tablespoon water at a time and make a dough. The dough need not be very smooth. It is fine if its little crumbly.
  • Preheat the oven to 170 C | 325 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough very thin, about 1/8-inch thick . Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut into 1" squares. Or use a cookie cutter of your desired shape.
  • Place them on the baking sheet, leaving little space in between them. Bake for 10 minutes and then rotate the pan. Continue baking for another 5 minutes or until lightly golden.
  • Let the crackers cool completely. Transfer them to an airtight container.

Notes

  • Garlic powder, onion powder and thyme are optional. Also you can add any herb you like.
  • Keep watching the crackers closely after rotating as they can quickly turn from golden color to dark brown-black.
  • I made them little spicy , so adjust the spice levels according to your taste.
