11 steps

What you need

  • 100 g (3/4 cup) bread flour, plus extra for rolling
  • 1 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 tsp fine salt

Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Stir the yeast into the warm water and leave for 5 min, until it foams a little.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, mix the rye flour, wheat flour and fine salt.

  3. 3

    Add the yeast water and the oil. Stir to a stiff, sticky dough, then knead for 5 min with wet hands. Rye dough stays tacky.

  4. 4

    Knead in the sunflower seeds. Cover the bowl and leave in a warm spot for 45 min, until the dough has puffed up.

  5. 5

    Heat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Line two large baking sheets with parchment.

  6. 6

    Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece out between two sheets of parchment to a rectangle about 2 mm thick, dusting with wheat flour if it sticks.

  7. 7

    Slide the rolled dough onto the lined sheets. Prick it all over with a fork, then score into 6 pieces with a knife.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle with flaky salt and press it in lightly with a rolling pin.

  9. 9

    Bake one sheet at a time for 12-15 min, until deep golden and dry at the edges. Rotate the sheet halfway through.

  10. 10

    Cool on a wire rack, where the crispbread hardens completely. Break along the score lines.

  11. 11

    If any piece still bends, return it to the oven at 150 °C (300 °F) for 5-8 min, then cool again.
