Introduction

Whole wheat flour, wheat germ, and peanut butter give it its hearty flavor and texture. After combining all the ingredients to make a soft dough, you roll out the dough as thin as possible and bake it until it's crisp and brown. Then after it has cooled, you break it into pieces with a rolling pin and it's ready to eat--either as a cereal or a snack. Store it in an airtight container to keep it crisp.

Ingredients

    1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    1/4 cup wheat germ
    3/4 tsp salt
    2/3 cup water
    1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (preferably all natural or sugar free)
    .

Directions

In a bowl stir together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, wheat germ and salt. By hand blend the water into the peanut butter until smooth. Add peanut butter to flour mixture, stirring to make the soft dough. Divide the dough into four pieces.

Lightly sprinkle some whole wheat flour over one piece of waxed paper. Top with one portion of the dough. Cover with a second piece of waxed paper. Roll the dough as thin as possible to about a 12x9-inch rectangle. Remove the top sheet of waxed paper. Invert the rolled-out dough onto a greased cookie sheet. Carefully peel off the second sheet of waxed paper. Repeat with remaining portions of dough.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp. Cool. Place cooled cereal in a plastic bag. Break into small pieces by pounding or rolling with a rolling pin. Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 5 cups (12 one ounce servings).

    This recipe is a good starting point; I made some changes to add more flavor and nutrition.

    I gave it a bit more oven time after I broke up the pieces to get everything nice and brown around the edges. Making sure it's very dry ensures longer storage and better texture in the milk of your choosi
