Sesame Wheat Crispbreads Recipe

Store-bought crispbreads are okay, but nothing beats these fresh little beauties, just cooled. Whole wheat flour, wheat germ, and yogurt give them more nutritional value to boot.

 

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 cup toasted wheat germ

1 tablespoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup stick margarine (or butter), cut into pieces

1 (8-ounce) carton plain nonfat yogurt

vegetable cooking spray

2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, lightly toasted

 

Method

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl; mix well. Cut in margarine with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in center of mixture; add yogurt and stir just until moistened. Shape into a ball; cover and chill 30 minutes.

 

Preheat oven to 425o. Divide dough into 4 equals portions. (keep remaining portions chilled while working with one). Roll one portion of dough out on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray into a very thin 12- x 10-inch rectangle; brush lightly with water. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, and roll lightly into dough using rolling pin. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove from baking sheet and cool on a wire rack. Repeat with remaining portions of dough and sesame seeds. Break crispbread into pieces.
