whole wheat “easy cheesy” crackers

It may seem obvious but the motto of cracker making should be “the thinner the better.” I’ve made various cracker recipes that perhaps will eventually make it to the blog, but here’s one that we really liked! We even ate the “too thick” ones.

I did one batch in pretty flower shapes and then said, “Forget this!” and moved on to the efficient method. :)

Of course, the USA is the ruling nation on variety, right? 50 different types of everything on the shelves. Well, in Ecuador we don’t have that and that’s okay…but every once in a while I miss things likes Triscuits, Wheat Thins, etc. So, hello! Make your own variety!

This really is an easy recipe (at any elevation) in the whole line of cracker recipes, so give it a try…

Weird title? Yes, well, I really wanted to try this recipe I found which happened to be vegan and I didn’t have “vegan chocolate chips” and other items, so this is just slightly adapted to what I had in my pantry!

It was very well-received by the husband and his football buddies over watching the Oregon game. I don’t say that to say, “look how good a baker I am…” but rather to remind myself of the details of the day I made these.  ;)
See my About page about why this blog even exists. 

 

For the true vegan version, where I found this recipe.

Here’s a  of what I did!

From original post:

Don’t let the “whole wheat” words fool you. This tasted like no other store-bought, from-a-bag whole wheat bread that I’d ever tried.

I think the secret was the brown sugar.

If you thought consciously about it, you could detect the tiny bit of sweet the bread had to offer in each bite. It was hardly noticeable and I think made all the difference.

I keep wanting to make this again but don’t ever think about it in time. When you , notice that you need quite a bit of rising time, but it doesn’t take too long to bake!

Enjoy!

If you’re looking for a sweet muffin, this isn’t your recipe. But it is a good muffin!

It’s easy to make and a gives you a good quick healthy breakfast option. They’re pretty heavy so one was enough for me at a time, but I do hope you enjoy them!
