Sizzling Tastebuds

Oats Butter Milk Crackers (Wholewheat, Butterfree & Eggless) | Easy Tea time snacks

These Oats Buttermilk Crackers
from Vardhini’s blog is a super hit since I keep making them. I am quite wary
of cookies and crackers for the flour and butter that most recipes offer, but
some like This and Onion Crackers are a winner at my place, and we love them to
snack or with an afternoon cup of tea. I have made no changes from Vardhini’s
recipe, and we love it for its mild sweet-savoury bite. 

Oats, wholewheat, no
butter – guess it cant get healthier than thisJ).. Do make it in bulk, and you might
find yourself nibbling them more often than you thoughtJ

Baking Marathon Day 8 : Wholewheat
Oats Buttermilk Crackers


Recipe type : Cookies / Crackers

Course: Tea time snacks

Cuisine : American

Makes : 15 – 18 medium sized
crackers.

Prep time: 15 mins | Bake time : 12-15
mins (varies from oven to oven)

Ingredients:

  • Oats – 1/3 cup (I used old
    fashioned oats)
  • Wholewheat flour – 1.5 cups
  • Salt – to taste (about ¼ tsp)
  • Baking Soda – less than ¼ tsp
  • Butter – 3 TBSP (I simply replaced
    with 4 TBSP Olive Oil)
  • Honey – 1 TBSP (warmed) (Or
    replace with Agave nectar for a vegan version)
  • Buttermilk – ¾ cup (I used 1 tsp
    less than a cup)*
  • Topping – roasted sesame seeds (optional)

*Buttermilk can be substituted with 1 cup milk mixed with 1/2 tsp vinegar. Else, if you have readymade yoghurt, whisk 1/2 cup with 1/4 cup water well and use.

Method:

  1. Mildly dry roast Oats on low flame for just 1-2 mins,
    cool and coarsely powder (this is optional, but I made it this way)
  2. In a large bowl, add the whole wheat,
    salt , soda, oats and mix well.
  3. Add the honey and oil (or butter)
    and mix well till you get a breadcrumb feel.
  4. Add buttermilk slowly and make a
    slightly stiff dough.
  5. Let it sit covered in a clingwrap
    for 15 mins in a refrigerator (optional step but recommended). Preheat oven to
    165 / 170 deg C (about 375 deg F)
  6. Roll out a slightly thickish disc
    with a portion of the dough, sprinkle the sesame seeds and press lightly.
  7. With a cookie cutter, cut out
    shapes of your choice, and place on a lined baking tray. Bake for 12-15 mins
    (till the edges turn slightly brown).
  8. Cool on a rack till they turn
    crisp . Store in an airtight container and munch, guilt free!
