Time 25m

Yield 24-36 crackers, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1/3 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Sift flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl.
  • Add brown sugar and butter and cut into flour with pastry blender or 2 knives.
  • Add milk gradually, tossing with fork to moisten evenly. Add a few drops more milk if mix seems dry. It should not stick to the bowl or your hands.
  • Divide dough into 4 pieces and press each into a ball and flatten slightly.
  • Place each cake of dough between 2 pieces of wax paper and roll with rolling pin to about 3/16 inch thickness.
  • Peel off top piece of wax paper and flip dough over onto ungreased cookie or pizza sheet.
  • Cut into squares or any shape you like. A pizza cutter is good for this.
  • Prick all over with a fork, then bake at 375 degrees until lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes Watch closely because crackers brown quickly. If the crackers on the outside brown before the center, remove the outer crackers and continue to bake the rest.
  • VARIATIONS: For variety, you can add herbs to the dough, or sprinkle crackers with poppy, caraway or sesame seeds before baking.
