Lemon Balsamic & Herbes de Provence Flatbread Crackers

Lemon Balsamic & Herbes de Provence Flatbread Crackers

The chicest thing on your cheese board—any time of year. Cheese plates aren't just for holidays and dinner parties. In my house, they’re a lifestyle. A Tuesday night reward. A Saturday afternoon reset. A “yes, I did get through my inbox” celebration.

And these homemade Lemon Balsamic & Herbes de Provence Flatbread Crackers? They’re the kind of thing that makes your cheese board look like it came from a magazine—but feel completely effortless. And most importantly, they pair with everything.

Creamy brei with fig jam? Yes. A salty aged Manchego with raspberry preserves? Even better. That random wedge you impulse-bought at the cheese counter because it had a pretty label? It’ll work.

These crackers are my go-to for impromptu guests and forced family fun (just add wine).

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup SOOC Herbes De Provence Olive Oil (plus more for brushing)
3 tablespoons SOOC Sicilian Lemon Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon Spaghetti Confetti
1 cup warm water (you may need more or less)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and grab a parchment lined baking sheet. Mix dry ingredients — flour, salt, baking powder, and Italian herbs— in a large bowl.

Add wet ingredients — stir in olive oil and lemon balsamic vinegar. Gradually add warm water until dough forms. It should be soft but not sticky. Knead lightly for 1–2 minutes on a floured surface.

Divide dough into two balls. Roll each one out very thin (the thinner, the crispier!) — about 1/8 inch. Transfer to baking sheet, brush lightly with more Herbes de Provence olive oil, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

Bake for 10–14 minutes until golden and crisp. Keep an eye — they can brown quickly! Cool completely, then break into pieces.
