INSTRUCTIONS
"Tart and tangy, these crackers capture the distinctive flavor of
cranberries. Serve them with wine or apple juice as an ideal starter for a
fall picnic. 325~F. 20 to 25 minutes Preheat oven to 325~F.
Stir together the flours and salt in a large bowl or in the food processor.
Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Add the cranberry sauce 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 about 1/8 inch thick.
With a cookie cutter or a small glass, cut the dough into 2-inch circles.
Prick all the way through each circle with a fork in 2 or 3 places. Bake
for 10 minutes. Brush the tops with egg white and continue baking another
10 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned and crisp. Cool the crackers on
a wire rack. Yield: 50-60.
VARIATIONS: For a crunchier cranberry cracker, add 1/4 cup Grape Nuts
cereal or chopped, toasted walnuts with the flours. If necessary, add
additional cranberry sauce.
