- Pour the mixture onto your parchment-lined baking sheet and use an offset spatula to spread it into a thin, even layer that is almost transparent.
- Lightly sprinkle the top with flaky salt - don't overseason.
- Bake for 10 minutes then remove from the oven and use a pizza cutter to score your crackers into bite-size squares.
- Return to the oven and bake another 20 minutes or until the crackers are golden and hardened.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet to let them fully dry out.
- Once they have cooled completely, store in an airtight container or zip bag.
