A simple and easy-to-make recipe from one of my favorites, Mollie Katzen's Moosewood Cookbook. You'll need a sifter, a pastry blender and perhaps some fun cookie cutters if you want cool shapes.

Time 25m

Yield 3 dozen crackers, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whole wheat flour, plus more
whole wheat flour, for kneading
1 cup white flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup plain yogurt
2/3 cup ice water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease two cookie sheets with butter and set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix first four ingredients and then sift them two times with a flour sifter. To this dry mix, add yogurt, cutting it in with a pastry blender. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in small saucepan and toast sesame seeds in butter until they start to smell nutty and get a bit browned. Add sesame seeds to dry mix and then ice water. Knead this mixture a bit, perhaps 20 strokes. If dough is still too sticky, add a handful of wheat flour until you can manage to roll it out on a flat surface.
  • Roll to 1/8 inch thick and cut into desired shapes. Poke many holes into each individual cracker with a fork.
  • Arrange on cookie sheets with about 1/4 inch between each cracker. Bake for 10 minutes or starting to brown at edges. Cool on baker's rack.

HOMEMADE SESAME CRACKERS

These are great with cheese or ranch or other sauces. I checked the bottom of crackers and turned when golden. You can add more flour or oil to form a dough. I made 6 11/2 strips. You can make them as thin or thick as you like.
