Receta Walnut Hemp Crackers - Just Like Ritz?
Do they taste like Ritz crackers? Many think so. Whether you agree or not, most agree these are very very tasty! My opinion, not exactly Ritz, but they do have a sort of shortbread consistency and remind me of Ritz in an odd way.
They'd be good with a bit of honey in the batter. I brought these to a party last night and served with Garlic and Red Pepper Hummus. It was amusing to watch the SAD eaters look at them kinda strange and ask, "What are those?" As each person tasted them, they were all pleasantly surprised. The crackers were gone in only a few minutes. I wished I had brought more with me. These are my favorite crackers so far!! I'll be making these again.
Tip: Using an offset spatula really helped me spread the batter nice and thin this time. I had to be very patient and take my time. Little by little I ran the spatula across the batter, then turning the tray, did it again, and again, until it was even. Keep a little extra batter in a bowl and use it to fill in gaps that might occur while spreading, or even while dehydrating. Here is the half version of this recipe I made and ended up with about 35 crackers.
