Homemade Crackers

















1 1/4c. (YUCK) all purpose flour - i'll try whole wheat flour next time!
1tbsp. salt
3tbsp. vegetable shortening (i like earth balance)
~3oz. soymilk
dried dill, curry powder, dried basil, Simply Organic Grind to a Salt, maybe cinnamon!


Preheat oven to 350. Combine first two ingredients. Using a fork, pastry cutter, or food processor, cut in the shortening. Add milk starting with 2 ounces using the remainder if necessary.
You want a stiff dough that forms a ball but is not sticky or wet. ALMOST like pie dough.

Roll out to about 1/8" (or thinner-as thin as you can get!) on a lightly floured surface. Transfer dough to an oiled baking sheet. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Sprinkle with salt and/or spices. I dabbed/brushed beet juice onto a few of them for color.
Bake approximately 10-12 minutes till golden and crunchy.
