Special Precautions and Tips:
- For a crunchier cracker, bake for a few minutes longer.
- If you don't have cookie cutters, you can simply cut the dough into rectangles or squares.
- Let the dough chill for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out to prevent it from sticking.
- If the dough is too dry, add a little more honey. If it's too wet, add a little more flour.
