INSTRUCTIONS
"Millet is an excellent grain which is too often overlooked. It adds both
texture and a sweet flavor. These simple crackers are splendid with a fresh
fruit salad. 350~F. 20 to 25 minutes Preheat the oven to 350~F.
Stir together the millet, flours, and salt in a large bowl or in the food
processor. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Warm the milk in a small saucepan. Dissolve the honey in the warm milk. Add
this sweetened milk to the flour mixture and blend to form a dough that
will hold together in a cohesive ball. If necessary, add a little more
milk.
Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or
pastry cloth, roll thin, maximum 1/8 inch. With a sharp knife, cut the
dough into 2-inch squares and place them on a lightly greased or
parchment-lined baking sheet. Prick each square 2 or 3 times with the tines
of a fork.
Bake for 10 minutes. Turn over and continue baking another 10 to 15
minutes, or until medium brown. Cool on a rack. Yield: 75-85.
