Yogurt Thins

Categories: Crackers

Serves: 85 Servings

Ingredients:

2 c All-purpose flour
1/4 ts Salt
1/4 c Oil
1/2 c Plain, unsweetened yogurt

Instructions:
"The flavor of these crispy snacks varies subtly with the type of yogurt
used. A bit of sweet jam or honey complements these somewhat tangy
crackers. They are also excellent with almost any dip.

325~ F 15 to 20 minutes

Preheat the oven to 325~ F.

In the food processor or in a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add
the oil and mix until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the yogurt and
blend to form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball. If
necessary, add an addional Tablespoon of yogurt.

Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or
pastry cloth, roll in a rectangular shape 1/8 inch thick. Using a spatulay,
rolling pin, or your hands, pick up the rolled dough and transfer it to a
large baking sheet.

With a sharp knife, score the surface into 2-inch squares, taking care not
to cut all the way through the dough. Prick each square in 2 or 3 places
with the tines of a fork.

Baike for 15 to 20 minutes, or until light brown. Turn over once during
baking and pull off any individual crackers at the edges that are already
brown. Cool on a rack. Yield: 80-85.

VARIATIONS: A sweeter cracker will result by substituting sweetened yogurt
for the plain yogurt. Lemon and berry flavors are good. If you use
fruit-at-the-bottom yogurt, be sure to stir it first. Note that the color
can be affected by the type of yogurt used.

Substituting 1/3 cup toasted wheat germ for the same amount of flour lends
this cracker a nutty flavor.
