Ingredients
- 1 1/2 c. All-purpose flour
- 1/2 c. Garbanzo bean (chick-pea) Flour
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp. Sugar
- 1/3 c. Vegetable shortening
- 1/2 c. Water
- 2 Tbsp. Oil for glazing the tops
- 1 tsp Salt for the tops
Directions
- "Do not pass over these crackers because they sound unusual. You will be surprised at how delicious they are. Like garbanzo beans themselves, these innovative crackers are a healthful, tasty addition to a fresh green salad.
- 325 F. 20 to 25 min Preheat oven to 325 F.
- Combine the flours, salt, and sugar in the food processor or possibly in a large bowl. Cut in the shortening till the mix is the consistency of coarse meal. Blend in the water to create a dough which will hold together in a cohesive ball.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or possibly pastry cloth, roll thin, no more than 1/8 inch thick. Using a rolling pin, spatula, or possibly your hands, lift the rolled dough onto a large, ungreased baking sheet. With a sharp knife, score into 2-inch squares without cutting all the way through the dough. Prick each square 2 or possibly 3 times with the tines of a fork.
- Bake for 10 min. Glaze with the oil and lightly salt the tops. Bake for 5 - 10 min more, or possibly till golden. Cold on a wire rack. Break into individual crackers when cold.
- Yield: 60-65.
- VARIATIONS: Any bean flour can be used. Purchase it at specialty or possibly health food stores. Lima bean and black-eyed pea flours work well.
