WHOLE WHEAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• 2. Put the flour, oat bran and salt in a bowl. Mix.
• 3. Pour in the olive oil and water.
• 4. Mix until just blended.
• 5. Divide dough into two pieces for thinner crackers or leave it in one piece for thicker crackers. We like the thin ones.
• 6. Roll the dough directly onto a cookie sheet. I use the Pampered Chef pizza roller and it works great to just roll the dough right into the sheet. But if you don't have one of those you can put the dough between two sheets of wax or parchment paper and roll out as thin as possible. Then transfer to an ungreased cookie sheet.
• 7. Mark squares out with a knife to score your crackers. If you don't do this step before you bake it, you will not get nice squares once it's baked. The crackers bake up pretty crisp and will just break into odd shapes and crumbs. There have been times I've forgotten to score it and it's still perfectly edible, it just looks more like almond bark jagged shapes than square or rectangle shaped crackers.
• 8. Prick each cracker with a fork a few times.
• 9. Sprinkle with salt.
• 10. Bake for 15 - 25 minutes in the oven, or until your crackers are crisp and light brown. Baking time might be different depending on how thin your crackers are.
• 11. When cool remove from baking sheet, and separate into individual crackers.

HOMEMADE WHOLE GRAIN CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees with the racks positioned in the middle and upper third. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix together the flour, sesame seeds and salt in a mixing bowl, in the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. If using a mixing bowl, add the oil and cut in with a fork. If using a stand mixer, mix at medium speed. In a food processor, pulse until the mixture is crumbly. Add the water, and mix with your hands, or at medium speed in a mixer or in the food processor, until you can gather the dough into a ball.
• Lightly dust your work surface and roll out the dough, or roll out between pieces of parchment, plastic or wax paper. Cut into desired shapes -- squares, diamonds or cookie-cutter shapes -- and place on the baking sheet, close together but not touching.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes until lightly browned, switching the sheet trays front to back and top to middle halfway through. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool on racks.

WHEAT CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pour in the vegetable oil and water; mix until just blended.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough as thin as possible - no thicker than 1/8 inch. Place dough on an ungreased baking sheet, and mark squares out with a knife, but don't cut through. Prick each cracker with a fork a few times, and sprinkle with salt.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crisp and light brown. Baking time may be different depending on how thin your crackers are. When cool, remove from baking sheet, and separate into individual crackers.
