Date and Olive Oil Wine Crackers image

From Whole Foods, who say that these crackers are ideal for serving with wine - no wine in them! The dates provide subtle sweetness. I have not tried these yet, but they look intriguing. Prep time does not include chilling time. Update: The WF website says this will work well using a gluten free flour mix instead of all-purpose.

Time 45m

Yield 24 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup pitted dates, chopped
1 teaspoon orange zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 eggs

Steps:

  • Pulse 1 cup flour and the dates in the food processor until the dates are very finely copped; transwer to a large bowl.
  • Stir in the remaining flour, zest, salt, pepper and baking powder. Make a well in the center.
  • Pour oil and 2 beaten eggs into the well and stir until combined; knead briefly in the bowl until the dough comes together.
  • Press the dough into a log and wrap snugly in parchment paper, squeezing tightly and twisting the ends in opposite directions to form a tight 9" log; chill until firm, 2-3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 deg F.
  • Trim off the ends and cut into 24 slices.
  • Arrange on a large parchment paper-lined baking sheet, brush tops with 1 beaten egg and bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.
  • Cool.
  • These can be made up to three days ahead and stored in an airtight container.
