Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the chopped rosemary and dried figs, evenly distributing them throughout the flour mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the water, honey, and olive oil until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together. If the dough feels too dry, add an additional tablespoon of water, one tablespoon at a time.
Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth. Divide the dough into two equal portions.
Roll out one portion of dough on a floured surface to a thin sheet, about 1/8-inch thick.
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into rectangles or any desired cracker shape. Transfer the shapes to the prepared baking sheet, ensuring a little space between each cracker.
Repeat the rolling and cutting with the second portion of dough, and transfer those crackers to the second baking sheet.
Prick each cracker with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.
Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through for even cooking.
Remove the crackers from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Store the cooled crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
