Ethereal Crisps

Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 12
• 4 1/2 ounces whole wheat flour (1 cup)
• 6 3/4 ounces bread flour (about 1 1/4 cups)
• 1 cup cooked grits, cooled slightly
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons warm water (or more if needed)

Recipe

• 1 combine whole wheat flour, bread flour, grits and salt in food processor; pulse to combine. start processor and trickle in water slowly until it forms a ball. the amount of water will depend on how wet the grits were. once it forms a ball, stop adding water and process until smooth and elastic.
• 2 place a pizza stone on the bottom of the oven (or the lowest rack if using electric) and preheat oven to 550°f divide dough into 12 pieces; keep unused pieces covered with plastic wrap or damp towel. flour a work surface and roll first ball until it is very thin and roughly circular, about 8 inches in diameter.
• 3 brush off excess flour. carefully place first sheet onto hot baking stone. set timer for one minute. flip cracker over after first minute; it should be somewhat stiff but still pale. set timer for another minute and check cracker. it should be almost crisp enough, and possibly starting to color. set timer for another minute and check cracker at intervals. once it starts browning, it goes fast, so check time and use that to time remaining crackers. repeat rolling and baking until all are done.
• 4 let each cracker cool on a rack before you begin stacking them. store cooled crackers in covered container at room temperature.
