We are baking Crackers for this month’s Bread Bakers. Our lovely host for the month, Sue who blogs at Palatable Pastime asked us to bake crackers or crisp lavash of any flavor and with any flour. So I made these lightly sweet and absolutely addictive Dried fruit Crackers.
Sweet Cracker Recipe:
I went straight to King Arthur flour website to look for cracker recipes and they sure had quite a few of them. But these dried fruit cracker recipe caught my eye because they are slightly sweeter and I prefer sweet snacks to savory ones. Also I knew my raisins and dry fruit loving kids would love these.
Ingredients for Dry fruit Crackers:
Main ingredient for these crackers is the dry fruit - I used dry cherries, raisins and dates. A combination of wholewheat and all purpose flour gives these a nice earthy flavor. The resulting crackers are crisp studded with nuggets of sweet dried fruit. They are flavored with ground coriander – yup you read that right, it’s ground coriander. I was a little worried if the crackers will be too savory tasting for my taste, but it’s very subtle.
Kid Friendly Recipe:
My kids didn’t even pick up on the spice. They absolutely loved them and have been snacking on them ever since. These dried fruit crackers are great with cheese and they make a great addition to any cheese and fruit platter (and with some wine, yes - please). Check out these extra crunchy crackers recipe too.
