Directions




Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until a firm ball is formed. Knead for 3 minutes, and cover the dough with plastic wrap or damp kitchen towel. Rest for another 20 minutes. Divide into 2 portions.






Prepare 2 baking sheets lined with either parchment paper or silicon mats. On a lightly oiled work surface, roll each piece of dough thinly into a rectangular shape, about 1/16-inch thick. Using a maple-leave shaped cookie cutter, cut the rolled dough into maple-leave crackers.


Transfer crackers with a spatula onto prepared baking sheets. Keep ¼ inch space. Pierce crackers with a fork.


Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃). Bake for 10 minutes at 350ºF. Rotate and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the crackers are deeply browned.
Glaze:
Brush with honey-water mixture and sprinkle with kosher salt immediately after removing from the oven. The crackers will get crisp as they cool.




Storage in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks.
