Serves:

Yield:
15 to 18 crackers
Preparation time:
20 minutes
Cook time:
25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cassava flour
- 1/2 teaspoon unrefined sea salt, plus more for sprinkling
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for rolling out dough
- 3 tablespoons warm water
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix the cassava flour, salt, and rosemary.
- Make a well in the center of the dry mix and add the oil. Gradually add in 2 tablespoons water, adding more as necessary. You want the mixture to be combined well but sticky enough to create a doughlike consistency.
- Place the dough in the refrigerator or freezer for 15 to 30 minutes. This will allow the dough to firm up and make it easier to handle.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on your work surface and coat your hands in a small amount of olive oil to prevent the dough from sticking.
- Scoop out the dough and flatten it on the parchment paper. Using a rolling pin or glass bottle, roll the dough as thinly as possible. Don’t worry if it cracks a bit.
- Place the rolled-out dough on the lined baking tray. Brush the dough with a little extra virgin olive oil, then sprinkle with salt.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until it becomes golden and crisp.
- Allow it to cool, then break into cracker pieces. Store in an airtight container.
