Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups whole wheat flour

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • cup wheat germ

  • ¼ cup ground flax seed

  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds

  • 2 tablespoons dried onion flakes

  • 1 tablespoon parsley flakes

  • 1 tablespoon dried basil

  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano

  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 ¼ cups water

  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • 3 tablespoons sesame oil

  • kosher salt to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Mix whole wheat and all-purpose flours, wheat germ, flax seed, poppy seeds, onion flakes, parsley flakes, basil, oregano, garlic salt, baking powder, paprika, and cayenne together in a large bowl.

  3. Combine water, olive oil, and sesame oil in another bowl; add to the dry ingredients and stir until dough is just moistened and easy to handle. Gather into a ball and divide into 4 equal sections.

  4. Roll 2 sections into thin sheets and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Prick with a fork or dough docker and cut into squares of desired size with a pizza cutter or pastry edger. Sprinkle with kosher salt.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes; watch carefully so crackers do not burn. Remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool.

  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with remaining dough.

Cook's Note:

You can use chicken broth in place of water, if desired.
