How to Prepare Herbed Chickpea and Sesame Crackers [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Preheat oven to 175C/375F.
In a large bowl, sift together chickpea flour, salt, sesame seeds and thyme.
Stir in oil, then add the water.
Knead until it becomes a supple dough. Add little more flour if too wet, or little more water if too dry.
Form dough into a disc.
Between two sheets of parchment paper, roll out the dough evenly and as thin as possible, to 1/8 inch thickness (or less if you can). Remove top baking sheet.
With a knife or cookie cutter, cut the dough into desired shapes. Poke each cracker with a fork to prevent puffing.
Transfer onto baking sheet (with bottom parchment paper).
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until edges turn golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool. Break crackers at pre-cut edges.
Serve immediately or keep in open bowl (they tend to un-crisp in airtight containers).
