How to Make Whole Grain And Pepper Crackers

  1. **Make the Dough:** In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup rolled oats, ½ cup wheat bran, 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 tablespoons sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
  2. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in 1 cup buttermilk and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Divide the dough in half, wrap each half in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. **Bake the Crackers:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one half of the dough into a 9x9 inch square, about ¼ inch thick.
  7. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 3-inch triangles or 2-inch squares.
  8. Transfer the crackers to the prepared baking sheets. Lightly brush with a beaten egg and sprinkle with an additional ¼ teaspoon of salt.
  9. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  11. Transfer the crackers to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
