  Cut into desired squares, I used a pastry roller to help mark the dough then cut into equal squares using a pizza roller at first but ended up just doing it by hand.

  After your squares are cut poke holes in them using a wooden skewer (the blunt end). Place on a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

  Coat each square using a pastry brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with kosher salt (desired amount to your liking. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. I use a gas oven so this time may be very different for you.

  I made several flavors and the ones we liked best were the Fresh Herb cracker. I chopped Parsley, sage, rosemary and oregano, mixed in one of the dough sections then rolled it out. Coated them with the olive oil and sprinkled with Kosher salt. After they were finished baking I took a Garlic clove and lightly rubbed the bottom side of added flavor!
