Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pulse the flour, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and sugar in a food processor until combined. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. With machine running, add cream; process until dough forms.
- On a lightly floured surface, briefly knead dough. Divide into 4 pieces; shape into rectangles. Wrap each in plastic; refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 piece of dough into a very thin rectangle. Transfer to a baking sheet. Score the dough into 4-by-2-inch diamonds. Brush with egg white, and sprinkle with salt. Garnish each diamond with a thyme sprig. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Bake until golden brown and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Break diamonds into individual crackers.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat or parchment paper.
- Place flour, salt, sugar, and grated cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir together until well mixed. Add rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and add water. Mix with a fork until mixture comes together in a fairly sticky dough and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer dough onto floured surface and add flour as you knead the dough. Knead until it no longer sticks to work surface, 4 to 5 minutes. Divide dough in half.
- Dust work surface with flour. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness or less. Brush or mist surface of dough very lightly with water. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Prick the entire surface of dough with the tines of a fork to prevent crackers from puffing too much when baking.
- Cut each rolled out half into about 30 pieces with a pizza wheel. You can cut them out in squares, rectangles, or triangles--your choice. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet with a bench scraper or your floured fingers (dough will be very sticky).
- Bake in preheated oven until perfectly browned and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness.

Tips:
- Use fresh thyme for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh thyme, you can use 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
- If you don't have sea salt, you can use regular salt. However, sea salt will give the crackers a more flavorful taste.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crackers tough.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. If the dough is too thick, the crackers will be too dense.
- Bake the crackers for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Let the crackers cool completely before storing them.
Conclusion:
These thyme sea salt crackers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or just a quick bite to eat. The combination of thyme and sea salt gives the crackers a unique and flavorful taste that will please everyone. So next time you're looking for a tasty snack, give these thyme sea salt crackers a try!
