Coriander, Cumin and Caraway Crackers

(makes 35-40 crackers)

Ingredients:

• 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  
  


• ¼ tsp ground coriander
  
  


• ½ tsp ground cumin
  
  


• 1 tbsp caraway seeds
  
  


• ½ tsp baking powder
  
  


• ½ tsp salt
  
  


• ¼ cup butter, cut into small pieces
  
  


• ⅓ cup non-fat milk
  
  


• 1 egg white, slightly beaten
  
  

Preparation:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  
  


• In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, coriander, cumin, caraway seeds, baking powder and salt. Add butter pieces a little bit at a time until incorporated.
  
  


• Add non-fat milk and continue mixing until it forms a doughy consistency. If mixture is too dry, add a tbsp or more of non-fat milk.
  
  


• Transfer dough to a floured surface and flatten slightly with the palm of your hand. Let sit for about 10 minutes to rise then using a floured rolling pin, flatten dough to about ⅛” thick.
  
  


• Use a 2” diameter rounded to cut out shapes. Place cut-out crackers onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Using a pastry brush, brush the surface of each cracker with egg white, then prick the surface with a fork and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  
  


• Use a spatula to remove crackers and cool completely on a rack.
  
  


• Keep crackers in an airtight container.
  
  


• Tip: Serve crackers with your favorite low-fat dip, with smoked salmon, or break them into smaller pieces, sprinkled over salad.
