Lavosh(Wheat Thins)


I have the last batch of these in the oven right now. These are so fun and easy to make. You do them a batch at a time, like making cookies. I found the picture at castsugar.blogspot.com(just click on the title), but the recipe I found is from http://www.bobsredmill.com/recipes_detail.php?rid=764 Just copy and past this to see for yourself. Of course it's here below as well. The first two batches I did turned out too soft(I didn't roll them thin enough), but after that they were PERFECT(I rolled them paper thin). I was surprised at how thin I had to roll them, but it is the key to these crackers. I found this recipe about a year ago and I finally got around to making them. I'm so glad I did.

Lavosh(Wheat Thins)

Ingredients
•1-1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
•1-1/2 cups White Flour, Unbleached
•1/2 tsp Sea Salt
•1/2 tsp Baking Soda
•1/4 cup Brown Sugar, packed (can be less if desired)
•4-5 Tb Sesame Seeds (White Hulled)
•1 stick Butter, melted
•1 cup Buttermilk

Directions
Mix together the first 6 ingredients (whole wheat flour through sesame seeds). Add the melted butter and buttermilk; mix well. Form batter into several balls the size of a tennis ball. Roll each out as thinly as possible on the back of an ungreased cookie sheet(use extra flower to roll them out, like a super mini-pizza). Score into 2" x 2" squares. Do not separate.

Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.

Options: Seasonings such as garlic salt, onion salt, poppy seeds or cracked black pepper can be used.

Makes about 3 dozen crackers.
