Tree-Shaped Crackers

The dry tree-shaped crackers are ideal as an appetizer or to accompany cured meats and cheeses. A cute and very simple idea to make for the holidays. You will need a few ingredients to make these tree-shaped crackers, the dough does not require yeast, just let it rest for 20 minutes and then roll it out thinly. Come along with me and let’s start experimenting.

  • Rest time: 20 Minutes
  • Preparation time: 5 Minutes
  • Portions: 35 pieces
  • Cooking methods: Oven
  • Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients

  • 2 cups re-milled durum wheat semolina flour (Or all-purpose flour)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1.4 oz extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup water

Steps

  • In a large bowl, place the flour in a mound, add the lukewarm water, olive oil, and salt, and mix with a fork, then use your hands to knead until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous dough.

    Let the dough rest for 20 minutes covered with a cloth.

  • After the resting time, divide the dough in two and start rolling it out very thinly, creating shapes. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush the trees with extra virgin olive oil, decorate as desired with oregano, paprika, small carrots, or whatever you prefer.

  • Bake in a preheated static oven at 392 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, checking often after 5 minutes.
