Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 2 pieces of parchment paper to fit baking sheet (or sheets if using two different sized sheets) and set aside.
- In a food processor, add the flour, sugar, wheat germ, flax seed, baking soda, salt Pulse a couple of times until well combined.
- Add the malt barley syrup and cold cubed butter and pulse a few times until dough becomes crumbly. While food processor is running, add the water very slowly , 1/4 cup to start and let it blend for about 15 seconds. If a ball of dough doesn't form, add just a tablespoon more at a time and let blend for 5-10 seconds. Stop once a dough ball forms.
- Remove dough from food processor and separate the dough in half. Add one half to one of the pre-cut parchment papers. Shape the dough into a rectangle and then roll it out with a rolling pin, keeping the shape as close to a rectangle as possible. Roll as thin as possible, about 1/16 or 1/8 of an inch. The dough may be a little sticky, use a little wheat flour on your rolling pin to keep it from sticking.
- Once dough is rolled out very thin, use pastry wheel to trim dough to even, straight edges. Use the trimmed dough to fill in other areas of dough to make rectangle on parchment paper. Roll flat and trimp. Repeat until dough is as close to an even rectangle as possible.
- Use pastry wheel to cut dough into 1 1/2 - 2 inch strips. Then again to create squares. Approxiately 8 colums and 8 rows. Pierce each square twice with a fork.
- Gently transfer parchment paper to baking sheet. Bake in baking sheets in oven for 7-10 minutes or until edges of crackers begin to brown.
- Let crackers completely cool and then store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

JOEV'S MULTI-GRAIN HONEY WHOLE WHEAT SANDWICH THINS
Our very talented Chef #1244526 created this recipe (a modification of another of Joe's recipes) to substitute for the commercial products. I am posting it with his permission. Joe says that the trick is to let the dough rest after rolling it out so it does not shrink in size, and then to dock it with either a pizza docker or a fork. The same technique can be used with any bread dough to create these popular thins. Please note that the software rounds certain quantities, so I listed Joe's very precise measurements immediately after certain ingredients.

Steps:
- Combine the milk, butter, honey and 5.8 oz water in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat and stir until the butter melts and the honey dissolves. Remove and cool to lukewarm (under 110 deg F).
- In a small bowl, combine the cereal and 1/2 oz of the hot water. Mix and set aside to cool, then combine with the liquid from Step 1.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a mixer bowl, stirring thoroughly.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry.
- Using a dough hook, combine on a low speed (speed 2) and mix for 6 minutes. If the dough seems sticky, add flour until the dough releases from the bottom of the bowl.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and knead to shape in into a ball, then place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk about an hour.
- Divide the dough into 2 oz portions, shape into balls and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
- With a rolling pin, roll out each ball into a 5 in disk, taking care to keep an even thickness. Let the disks rest on the work surface for 2 to 3 minutes, to help them retain their shape (they will want to shrink).
- Place on baking sheets lined with parchment paper and dusted with cornmeal.
- Dock each disk with a docker or with a fork, then cover and let rise for 20 to 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 deg F.
- Brush top of disks with warm milk and sprinkle with oatmeal flakes.
- Bake for 13 minutes or until they just start to get golden brown. Remove from pans immediately and cool on wire racks.
- When the disks have cooled completely, slice in half horizontally with a sharp bread knife. Place in a bread bag or freezer bag and freeze to maintain freshness. Thaw for 15 seconds in the microwave.
LOW-CARB WHEAT THINS
These crackers are reminiscent of "Wheat Thins" and are great with dips, spreads, and cheeses. Because they're made with almond flour, they're low-carb and soy-free. Try substituting ranch dressing mix for the garlic salt.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Mix all ingredients together.
- Transfer dough a silicone mat on a cookie sheet.
- Cover with waxed paper and roll out with rolling pin, glass, or can. The dough should be quite thin and of an even thickness.
- Remove waxed paper and sprinkle with additional garlic salt, if desired.
- Score dough into squares using a pizza cutter (don't press, or you'll damage your silicone mat).
- Bake for 15 minutes and check to see if crackers have started to brown. If the edges have started browning, remove those crackers, then put cookie sheet back into the oven.
- Check crackers at 5 minute intervals, removing any that are thoroughly cooked.
- Let cool completely and store in airtight container.
WHEAT THINS STYLE CRACKERS
Posting here so that I don't lose it again. :o I made these years ago when the kids were younger but I can't remember what the yield was, where I got the recipe or whose recipe it was. I'm going to make them again later in the week. I'll get the correct prep time info and yield then but memory fails me now. :o . Perhaps someone out there in Zaar knows who should get the credit for this recipe and wouldn't mind posting that information? It would be much appreciated.

- Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until crackers are crisp and light brown.
- Cool completely. Separate into individual crackers.
- Store in air-tight containers in a cool, dry place.

THIN SANDWICH BUNS
I've tried to make a low calorie homemade bread for years. When they came out with thin buns, it inspired this recipe. One sandwich bun is 1 Weight Watcher point. TIPS: You'll need a 4" biscuit or cookie cutter for these to be consistent. The vital wheat gluten improves the texture and rise, but you don't have to use it. Just add 2 more tablespoons of flour if you omit it. And white flour will work just fine if you don't want whole wheat. Just add more flour in place of the extra bran called for in the recipe. Of course, the nutritional info will be different. Enjoy! Kathie

Steps:
- In a bowl sprinkle the sugar over the warm water, then do the same with the yeast. Add the egg and oil and combine. In a separate container, use a fork or a whisk to stir together the flour, bran, wheat gluten, and salt. Add 1/2 of this mixture to the wet ingredients and blend. This is the sponge.
- Let rise 30 - 45 minutes.
- Add rest of flour mixture and knead for about 5 minutes. I use my stand mixer with the dough attachment. This dough will be sticky.
- Spray 2 cookie sheets with cooking spray. Divide dough into 16 equal portions. This is a wet dough so instead of adding any additional flour, I weigh the dough on a food scale and divide it by 16. Then I weigh out each portion and put 8 on each cookie sheet. Don't worry about how it looks now.
- Take a 4" biscuit cutter and place it over one of the dough portions. If you wet the inside of the cutter as well as your fingers you can spread the dough into a perfect circle by using your fingers to flatten it to the inside edge of the biscuit cutter. (These will be very thin but they will rise). Remove the cutter, re-wet the inside and use it to do the same thing to the remaining 15 buns.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Let the buns rise until double in bulk, about 30-45 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Don't overbake. Cool the buns and then cut them in half for sandwich buns.
- Edit Note: Since I first started making these I've made 2 changes. One is that I make them in muffin top pans sprayed with Pam. No cutting involved.
- The other thing is that I use oat fiber instead of the wheat bran. I ordered oat fiber online. It is NOT the same as oat bran and is in many things these days, so I decided to try it instead of wheat bran. It is very high fiber, few calories, and pleasant tasting. Just use in moderation. In this recipe I use only 1/4 cup. It is 5 calories and 26 grams of fiber for the 1/4 cup. Also, it is more mild tasting than the wheat bran.

- Using a cheese grater, shred butter onto flour mixture. Using your hands, combine until thoroughly mixed.
- In a small dish, mix together the water and vanilla and pour liquid into the flour and butter mixture. Stir this until it comes together. You made need to use your hands a bit to really mix this together. If the dough appears dry add a touch of water, but not too much, as you do not want the dough to become sticky.
