Well...I'm assuming it's user error since all the other reviews are so good! My crackers mostly came out almost "stale" tasting. I actually left them in a few extra minutes since they weren't browning. I rolled out the dough very thin and cut shapes out of it. The shapes turned out nicely..but the texture is just not there. Hmm. Again, probably something I did since everyone else had such great results...but I'm disappointed.

    These are FANTASTIC!! I've made three batches with stone ground wholemeal wheat and the last batch I did 1/4c Wholemeal wheat, 1/4c Corn flour, 1/2c fine ground corn meal & 1T gluten (don't know if it needed it but thought I'd add it just in case). I cut dough into 16 then rolled it out thin b4 pricking it and using the pizza cutter to score them into either 1/4s or 1/8ths. Once they're broken they a cute little triangles. Next time I'm going to try gluten free ones 5star +

    Wonderful and very easy to adapt. I tried olive oil like another reviewer suggested. I just whirled the dry ingredients and added the oil through the hopper to make sure it got distributed. I just added my own herbs without measuring. I also tried a batch that was half whole wheat (using white wheat instead of red wheat). This was so easy and the dough handled really well. It was easy enough to do with "help" from the 4 year old and the 16 month old.

    I have been paying a fortune for gourmet flat bread crackers, no more! This recipe is so easy! No mess, no hassle! I had to add a bit more water than called for, but everything else I kept the same. This disappeared as soon as it came out of the oven. Next time I am making a double batch! Thanks Dancer^!!
