A very easy to bake whole wheat cracker recipe.
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F/180C for 15 minutes.
  2. While the oven is preheating, in a medium bowl sift the flours and salt. Add the sesame seeds.
  3. Add the oil and blend well. Add water little by little to form the dough into a ball and easy enough to roll.
  4. Divide the dough into 2 balls. Roll each half to 1/8 inch thick and cut into squares or sticks. Repeat the same with the other half too. I dusted some all purpose flour on the surface to roll the dough easily.
  5. Place the squares on un-greased baking sheet and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the crackers are crisp. The baking time depends on the thickness of the squares.
  6. Store in a tightly covered container up to 1 week.
Taste:
  1. The cookies were golden brown in color and very crispy. The first batch squares were thick and so I made the next batch paper thin. I preferred the thick crackers and my son liked both. You don't get the raw smell of whole wheat flour or the soy flour. Also I felt it tasted even better the next day of baking.
My Notes:
  1. I used black sesame seeds because I didn't have the white seeds. I think the pack I had some impurities, so while eating the crackers we were able to feel it. So go with white sesame seeds or be sure to clean the black sesame seeds before using.
  2. I used sunflower oil.
  3. For the first batch I didn't know how thin to roll the dough, so the squares were little thick and it took around 23 minutes to turn crisp. I did not flip the crackers but gave a slight shake twice or thrice in between. For the next batch I rolled the dough paper thin and it turned golden brown within 10 minutes. If it's very thin be alert or else the crackers would burn.
  4. The crackers were crispy even after 4 days.
  5. Adding ground pepper or chili powder will spice it up.
