Sourdough crackers are so easy to customize and EAT.

    This recipe uses discard that is "unfed" or has been fed but is now past its prime time for baking with. Since I'm sure you're dying to know, mine is named Philoctetes, or Phil.

    • Divide dough into 4 portions. Roll one portion thinly, 1-2 mm thick, about the thickness of a penny. Sprinkle ½ Tablespoon Everything Bagel seasoning over dough evenly and roll over with rolling pin to press into dough. Repeat with other sections of dough.
    • Cut into small squares (about 1 inch) with pizza cutter or ravioli cutter, and transfer to baking sheet(s) using spatula, so edges of crackers do not touch.
