Directions
Date and Olive Oil Wine Crackers, From Whole Foods, who say that these crackers are ideal for serving with wine – no wine in them! The dates provide subtle sweetness I have not tried these yet, but they look intriguing Prep time does not include chilling time Update: The WF website says this will work well using a gluten free flour mix instead of all-purpose , Taste wise these crackers deserve the full 5 stars and more They are sooo delish! Very fruity with a subtle hint of spice from the pepper YUM! The texture is great, too More like a cookie with a soft center and crunchy edges, but very good for dipping into all sorts of things or just nibbling on :)However I had great trouble working with the dough: I made half the recipe using slightly less oil than called for and the dough was so wet that I had to knead in about 1/2 cup more to make it resemble anything like cookie dough It was still soft, but manageable then I ended up freezing the dough for 1/2 hour to make it sliceable That way it worked out well and I ended up with one of the best crackers Ive ever eaten, but getting there was a bit of a struggle I got about 30 crackers from half the recipe even though I sliced mine quite thickly THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe here with us, with some tweaking its the bomb! :)Made and reviewed for PRMR June 2011
