5. Roll Out the Dough:
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness. If you prefer thicker bites, feel free to roll it out to a slightly thicker consistency.
6. Cut into Bite-Sized Pieces:
Using a cookie cutter, knife, or pizza cutter, cut the dough into small squares, rectangles, or fun shapes—whatever suits your style! You can also create mini crackers for a more delicate bite.
7. Brush and Sprinkle:
Place the cut dough pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with the beaten egg to give them a golden, shiny finish after baking. For extra flavor and texture, sprinkle a few sesame seeds or sea salt flakes on top of each bite.
8. Bake to Perfection:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salty bites are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them, as baking times may vary depending on the size of the bites.
9. Cool and Enjoy:
Once baked, allow the salty bites to cool slightly before serving. These bites are best enjoyed warm, but they can also be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
Tips for the Perfect Salty Bites:
- Make Them Spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika to the dough for a spicy kick.
- Herb Variations: Experiment with different herbs like thyme, oregano, or basil to create new flavor combinations.
- Cheese Options: While Parmesan adds a lovely depth of flavor, feel free to swap it out with cheddar, Gruyère, or even feta for a different twist.
- Add-ins: For extra crunch and flavor, consider adding chopped nuts (like walnuts or almonds) or sunflower seeds into the dough.
