Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse sand.
Step 3
Add water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring until a shaggy dough just comes together.
Step 4
Roll dough between two sheets of parchment paper until very thin, about 1/16 inch.
Step 5
Transfer to baking sheet. Prick all over with a fork to prevent puffing.
Step 6
Bake 12–15 minutes until edges are golden brown and surface looks dry.
Step 7
Remove from oven. Cool on the sheet 5 minutes, then break into irregular shards.
