Delicious and Healthy Crackers Kids Love in Bali, Indonesia

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, grated coconut, turmeric powder, and sea salt.

Add coconut oil and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add water, kneading the mixture into a smooth, pliable dough. 

If the dough feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time. Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes, covered with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2: Roll and Cut the Crackers

Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).

Divide the dough into two portions. Roll each portion thinly on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Ensure even rolling for consistent baking.

Use cookie cutters in fun shapes like animals or stars to make the crackers more appealing to kids. Alternatively, use a pizza cutter to create squares or rectangles.

Transfer the cut shapes carefully onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving a small gap between each cracker.

Step 3: Add Toppings

Lightly brush the tops of the crackers with water or coconut oil to help the toppings adhere.

Sprinkle sesame seeds, flaked sea salt, or chopped herbs evenly across the crackers. For a more vibrant look, combine toppings.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. Rotate the baking tray halfway through for even browning.

Check for a golden-brown color and crisp texture. Thicker crackers may require an additional 2-3 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing. Cooling ensures they become perfectly crispy.
