This mounth challenge was really fun!I never done crackers,i will do it again!!I did it whit all-purpose flour!and the topping is a salsa whit pineapple and lime.
Makes 1 sheet pan of crackers;
•1½ cups unbleched bread flour
•½ tsp salt
•½tb(0,55oz) instant yeast
•1 Tb agave syrup or sugar
•1Tb vegetable oil
•1/3 t0½ cup+2Tb water,at room temperature
•poppy seeds,sesame seeds,paprika,cumin seeds or kosher salt for topping.
1)In a mixing bowl,stir together the flour,salt yeast,agave,oil and just enough water to bring everything together into a ball.You may not need the full ½ cup+2 Tb of water,but be prepared to use it all if needed.
2)The dough should be firmer than french bread dough,but not quite as firm as bagel dough,and slightly tacky.Lightly oil a bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl,rolling it a round to coat it with oil.Cover the bowl whit plastic wrap
3)Ferment at room temperature for 90 minutes,or until the dough doubles in size.
4)Mist the counter lightly whit spray oil and transfer the dough to the counter.Press the dough into a square with your hand and dust the top of the dough lightly whit flour.Roll it out whit a rolling pin into a paper thin sheet about 15 inches by 12 inches.You may have to stop form time to time so that the gluten can relax.At these times,lift the dough from the counter and wave it a little and then layit back down.Cover whit a towel or plastic wrap while it relaxes.When it is the desired thinness,let the dough relax for 5 minutes.Line a sheet pan whit baking parchment.Carefully lift the sheet of dough and lay iton the parchment.If it overlaps the edge of pan,snip off the excess whit scissors.
5)Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit whit the oven rack on the middle shelf.Mist the top of the dough whit water and sprinkle a covering of seeds on the dough,such as poppy seeds ,cumin or paprika.If you want to make shards,bake the sheet of dough whitout cutting it first.
6)bake for 15-20 minutes,or until the crackers begin to bron evenly across the top(the time will depend on oven)When the crackers are baked,remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.You can then snap them apart or snap off shards and serve

1 red paprika
1 red onion
½ granulated sugar
a little chili
