Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter with flour and a pinch of sea salt. Melt your choice of coconut oil, butter, or olive oil, then add it to the mixture.
  2. Once combined, shape the dough into a ball, divide into two equal portions, flatten slightly into rectangles, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, let it sit for 5 minutes, then roll each rectangle to about 1/16 inch thickness.
  5. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the baking sheet, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, and cut into squares or triangles.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating halfway through, until golden brown and crisp.
  7. Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.
