Ingredients
1 tsp all-purpose flour (for dusting)
240 g all-purpose flour
80 ml water (or more if needed)
4 g kosher salt (or as needed)
5 ml olive oil (or as needed)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 245°C (475°F) with an oven rack positioned at the top. Place a heavy baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
Step 2
Dust a clean work surface and a rolling pin with 1 tsp of flour.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and water, stirring until a rough ball of dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 1 minute until smooth.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Roll out each dough ball into an 8-inch round, piercing the dough all over with a fork to prevent rising.
Step 5
Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and place the dough rounds on it. Bake on the top rack for 2 minutes, then flip the matzah over and bake for an additional 2 minutes until lightly browned and crisp.
Step 6
Transfer the matzah to a wire rack to cool, then lightly brush each piece with olive oil and season generously with salt.
