Coffee Crackers
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
3/4 c All-purpose flour
3/4 c Oat flour
1/4 c Sugar
4 tb (1/2 stick) butter or
Margarine, softened
1/3 c Strong brewed coffee,
Cooled
Preheat the oven to 325 F.
Mix the flours and sugar together in a large bowl or in the food
processor. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse
meal.
Add the coffee and blend to form a dough that will hold together in
a cohesive ball. Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling.
On a floured surface or pastry cloth, roll out to 1/8 inch thick.
With a sharp knife or cookie cutter, cut into 2-inch shapes.
Place the crackers on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking
sheet. Prick each one all the way through in 2 or 3 places with
the tines of a fork. Bake for 12 to 18 minutes, or until the
crackers are medium brown. Cool on a rack. Yield: 40-45.
VARIATIONS:
If you like your coffee a little sweeter, lightly and evenly
sprinkle the rolled dough with sugar and roll over it lightly
with your rolling pin before cutting.
For crunchiness, add 1/2 cup cracked wheat with the flour.
Add 1 Tablespoon grated lemon zest to the flour. To prepare the
zest, lightly grate the skin of a medium-sized lemon against the
fine grate of a cheese grater. Use only the colored part. The
underlying white portion is bitter.
