Everyone can benefit from recipes to use up your sourdough starter discard like our delicious Sourdough Pancakes. These Whole Grain Sourdough Crackers are another perfect way to use discard you've saved up throughout the week.
Sourdough Crackers
100g sourdough starter
60g - 80g Flourist Whole Grain Red Spring Wheat Flour
25g olive oil or room temperature butter (plus more olive oil for topping)
3g dried herbs
1/2 tsp salt (plus more for topping)
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. The dough should be nice and soft. The flour amount will depend on how liquid or how thick your sourdough starter is. Begin with 60g and add more if required.
Knead a few times and then cover with cling wrap and let sit for at least 4 hours and up to 8.
After the rest, preheat the oven to 350°F. Roll the dough until it is nice and thin (about 3mm) and cut into desired shapes. Transfer to parchment-lined sheet trays and brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Bake for about 10 minutes (depending on the shape and size of the cracker). Crackers should be nice and golden on the edges. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Hello! This is maybe a silly question but do you need to have fed the Sourdough discard before using this recipe, or have it sitting out of the fridge for a period of time before using?
Thank you so much for sharing! This looks delicious! (I believe you mean mm and not cm for the thickness.)
