Categories     appetizer

Time 42m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 ounces whole-wheat flour
4 3/4 ounces all-purpose flour, plus additional for rolling
1/3 cup poppy seeds
1/3 cup sesame seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons table salt
1 1/2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 1/2 ounces water

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl whisk together both flours, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, salt, and baking powder. Add the oil and stir until combined. Add the water and stir to combine and create a dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead 4 to 5 times. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, cover with a tea towel and allow to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • For a thin snacking cracker: On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 piece of dough to 1/16-inch and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. If there is room on the sheet pan, repeat with a second piece of dough. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 4 minutes then flip and bake for an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. When cool, break into desired size pieces. Repeat procedure with remaining dough.
  • For a thicker dipping cracker: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough as above but to 1/8-inch thick. Bake for 6 minutes on the first side, then flip and bake another 4 to 6 minutes.
  • For super even thickness and easy rolling: Roll out using a lightly floured pasta roller. Flatten the dough until it will pass through the first setting and go to the highest number that your pasta roller will allow without tearing the dough. Bake according to the thin cracker instructions.
  • Note: Baking times will vary depending on exact thickness of dough and oven temperature, so watch them closely. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1/3 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/3 cup sesame seeds
3 tablespoons chia seeds
3 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon vegetable oil

Remove parchment from cracker, carefully turn cracker over, and return to baking sheet. Bake until firm and golden brown around edges, 15-20 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet, then break into pieces with your hands.
  • Do Ahead
  • Crackers can be made 1 week ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

FENNEL & POPPY SEED CRACKER WREATH



Fennel & poppy seed cracker wreath image

Arrange savoury biscuits in a pretty circle around your chosen cheese for a decorative centrepiece and alternative cheeseboard

Provided by Sarah Cook

Time 55m

Yield Makes 1 wreath for 6-8 people with cheese

Number Of Ingredients 6

300g plain flour , plus extra for rolling
2 tsp baking powder
85g butter , diced
2 tsp fennel seed , plus extra to sprinkle
2 tsp poppy seed , plus extra to sprinkle
splash of milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line one baking sheet with parchment. Place the flour, baking powder, butter, fennel and poppy seeds with ½ tsp salt in a food processor, then whizz for a minute until the butter is completely mixed with the flour. Add 100ml water and pulse until the mixture comes together to a firm dough that's not sticky - you may need another tbsp or so of water, if it still feels.
  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface as thinly as you can. Stamp out lots of different sized circles using a selection of round and fluted biscuit cutters of 4cm, 5cm and 6cm diameter. Brush a little milk over the surface of the biscuits, and prick all over with a fork. Start to arrange in a circle on the baking sheet, overlapping each other. If you want to serve a cheese in the centre, check that it will fit. Scatter over a few more fennel and poppy seeds and bake for 15 - 20 mins until the biscuits feel dry and sandy with a slightly golden colour around the edges - they may still feel soft but will harden up when cooling. Cool on the baking sheet. Serve with cheese & chutney. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:

  • To make the poppy seed crackers, you need cream cheese, butter, flour, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, baking soda, and salt. For the sesame seed crackers, you also need black sesame seeds.
  • Be sure to cream together the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. This will help the crackers to be smooth and tender.
  • Gradually add the flour to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix, or the crackers will be tough.
  • Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill it for at least 30 minutes. This will help the dough to firm up and make it easier to roll out.
  • When you are ready to bake the crackers, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the crackers after they're done baking.
  • Divide the dough in half, and roll out each half to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Cut out the crackers into desired shapes, and sprinkle them with poppy seeds and sesame seeds.
  • Bake the crackers for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Both poppy seed crackers and sesame seed crackers are delicious and easy to make. They are perfect for snacking, entertaining, or as a gift. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty and healthy treat that the whole family will enjoy.
