4. 4

   Gradually add

5. 5

   5 cup of water, mixing until a dough forms. You may need a little more or less water, so add it slowly.

6. 6

   Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth.

7. 7

   Roll the dough out as thin as possible (about 1/8 inch thick).

8. 8

   Cut the dough into squares or desired shapes using a knife or cookie cutter.

   Place the crackers onto the prepared baking sheet. Prick each cracker with a fork to prevent puffing.
