Thanks for these simple and clear videos. Just made my first sourdough starter and bread from it! Next will attempt these crackers. ✨

I semi made these today, had also looked at your cheese crackers again and decided to mix them - that is add some cheese to these. Kept the seed topping off since the hubby makes a mess with seeds 🤣 Definitely a win!!!!

[@sunithag8160]

These turned out so well , thank you. I brushed the dough with water to help adhere the seeds. Worked perfectly. Just a heads up, in the “Method” you omitted the addition of sourdough .

[@ChainBaker]

Awesome! 😍 and thank you so much for letting me know :) I do sometimes rush and forget to write things down 😄

I made these today as Project #1 for my Sourdough Baking Weekend. Tried them already and they are great - perfect for light snacking. Will enjoy them with some homemade hummus and perhaps some Manchego cheese. Photo has been posted. Just to clarify - you mentioned that you like these with cream cheese or pate..... or naked - you were referring to the crackers, yes? 😆😆😆 (sorry, I just couldn't resist). Thanks for sharing this fantastic recipe. Time to clean up and start prepping my other weekend Sourdough projects.

They look so good! It's been a long time since I've made crackers. And even longer since I've had them naked 🤣

wow advice for us vegans.....Yayyyyy !!!! i can use vegan butter too, but awesome for the eggwash ty so much... should it be watery, medium or like a paste the sub for eggwasch? can treacle be replaced by molasses (its sweet and a bit bitter too? will try these as soon as i have enough discard, just made a discard bread can't wait to try them, ty again and again :)

[@ChainBaker]

I'd go for medium. You can swap it for any sweet syrup you like ✌️

@@ChainBaker Im very grateful

oh regarding the dbl batch of crackers. I did soak the seeds in coconut aminos, could that extra water, even though they were drained have affected the creackers. I also did a 2nd thing was to leave them rolled out in the fridge for 2 hours because I had a meditation circle and did not want to break out of it. Could that be why the crackers were soft?

[@ChainBaker]

The extra moisture would have definitely had an effect on baking time.

[@ChainBaker]

Resting them in the fridge could make them slightly more moist, but that can be fixed by baking longer.

[@thestudio396]

I made these crackers because I had just made three different kinds of sourdough starters. All of the recipes from Charlie have worked perfectly for me save this one. But to be fair, I dbled the recipe because my trays are dbl the size recomended. I either should have stayed with the same qty recipe and rolled the crackers to very thin, or my starter was too wet, or perhaps I should have baked them at a lower temperature so the crispness would be like a cracker. What should I have done?

[@ChainBaker]

Baking them for a bit longer or lowering the temperature and baking longer would have helped. It's all about drying the dough.

[@rosannashe6313]

hi there - I am new to baking. I like to avoid sugar/honey etc. is the treacle here important to the taste of the recipe or to the development of the dough? Can I skip it?

[@ChainBaker]

You can leave it out ✌️

No fan in my oven, but I go a bit crazy and do this anyway 😉😂

😁👍🏻

[@trackie1957]

I’m going to try these with all purpose flour, too. I expect them to be more bland, like saltines

[@YogaWithGail]

Oh, crackers are my thing......
