  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Combine all Dough ingredients in a large bowl and mix until a very stiff dough forms. Add more flour if needed to achieve a firm consistency.
  3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Roll dough out to about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thickness.
  5. Cut into squares or rectangles (approximately 3x3 inches / 7.5x7.5 cm).
  6. Using a fork, prick each piece of hardtack several times. This prevents excessive puffing and creates holes for easier softening later.
  7. Place hardtack on an ungreased baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 30-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until very hard and dry. The hardtack should be extremely difficult to break.
  9. Turn off the oven and leave the hardtack inside to cool completely and further dry out for at least 30 minutes.
