All the ingredients used in this whole wheat crackers\u2019 recipe are the ones which are readily available at home. I have kneaded the cracker dough using milk and added some sesame seeds to it. Children are quite fussy when it comes to drinking milk which is an essential source of calcium. By adding milk and sesame seeds, these crackers fulfills some part of their daily calcium requirement. Also, Sesame seeds are a great addition to everyday diet as they are a rich source of omega 6 fatty acids, vitamins, dietary fibre and anti-oxidants. Along with it, they also contain, copper, magnesium and zinc etc.<\/p>\n

List Of Ingredients: (Makes30-35 crackers)<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Whole Wheat Flour-1+1\/4 cup (150 grams)<\/li>\n
  • Salt-1 tsp  ( Reduce it to 1\/2 tsp or less if using salted butter)<\/li>\n
  • Sugar-1+1\/2 tbsp<\/li>\n
  • Chilly Flakes\/Chilly powder-1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n
  • Sesame Seeds-1 tbsp<\/li>\n
  • Cold Unsalted butter-50 grams (cut into cubes)<\/li>\n
  • Chilled Milk-1\/4 cup<\/li>\n
  • Water-2 tbsp (if required)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Steps To Prepare:<\/h3>\n

    Step1:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Take whole wheat flour, salt, sugar, chilly flakes, sesame seeds and cold butter in a mixing bowl.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Step2:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Rub the cold butter in flour till the mixture starts looking like bread crumbs.<\/p>\n

    \t<\/ins><\/ins><\/ins><\/p><\/div>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Step3:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Add chilled milk to it and start bringing the ingredients together using hands or spatula to form dough. Don\u2019t knead it too much. If the dough is crumbly, add 2 tbsp water or milk more to it.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Step4:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Cover the dough using wet kitchen towel or tissue for 5-10 minutes.<\/p>\n

    \t<\/ins><\/ins><\/ins><\/p><\/div>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Step5:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Set the oven for preheating at 200 degrees Celsius. In the mean time, let us proceed to next step.<\/p>\n

    Step6:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Dust some dry flour on the rolling surface. Start rolling the dough for crackers over it. The dough should be rolled as thin as possible. Start cutting the crackers in squares or circles using a cookie cutter or a scale. I have used a scale to mark 2\u2033x 2\u2033 crackers.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    \t<\/ins><\/ins><\/ins><\/p><\/div>\n

    Make holes into it using toothpick\/knife\/fork. This is required so that crackers don\u2019t start rising and remain thin & crispy. Here I have made these holes using back of a toothpick.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Step7:<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

    Place a parchment paper on a baking tray. Arrange the cut out crackers on it. Sprinkle some salt over it. Please don\u2019t skip sprinkling the salt as I personally feel they make a huge difference to the final taste.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Bake these crackers at 200 degrees Celsius for 10-12 minutes till golden brown. Keep an eye on them  as they burn really quickly. Once done, place them over a wire rack for cooling down.<\/p>\n

    Enjoy these healthy delicious sweet & salty crackers with hot steaming cup of ginger tea or coffee.<\/p>\n
