Baking Wheat Thins ~ Eliminating Processed Foods


Today I baked wheat thins from scratch.  I used a recipe I found on-line, and they were delicious.  We typically enjoy store purchased, processed wheat thins with our homemade hummus. 


In doing away with as much processed food as we can, we are now going to be baking these regularly, using as many organic ingredients as we can.  The whole wheat flour we used is from a local flour mill, that produces stone ground and preservative free flour.  We use organic milk and butter.  Once our goats are producing milk, we will try baking these witho our own organic milk.

Here is the link for the recipe:  Wheat Thins

One Tip:  Use parchment paper to avoid the crackers sticking to the pan.  

There are several more recipes for these in cookbooks and on the Internet.  I am sure we will be doing some more experimenting with recipes.

Thank you so much for the recipe - I have been wanting to make my own and here it is - hope to get to it today. Many thanks.

Question

  I have asked this before, but I know I follow a few writers who have written (and published) novels.  What is the best free or best least expensive (simple like Word) writing software to use that is not Google Docs?

Horsetail Salve ~ A "first" this Year

We purchased some horsetail salve to try last year.  It is said to help with severely dry, cracked skin.  My husband was the first to try it, with very, very dry and cracked hands from work. He loves it!  He joked I could not have it back.   I started the infused, horsetail oil the last part of March. Something I learned:   horsetail is also called shavegrass. I infused horsetail in oil, and strained it.  I then made horsetail salve.  I remembered to label my jar with what oil(s) I used, so I can journal this all in my "Herbal Remedies" journal.  I often forget to write the oil used. Now, the one we bought, has more in it than I put in ours, as far as ingredients (the purchased salve had lanolin, and aloe).  We'll see if ours works just as good.  I added the sage essential oil, and vitamin E oil. A "first" time experience for us this year.    I bought the larger tins at a seed store in an Amish area last year.  They a...

  The pickings are slim right now, but we'll take anything we are blessed with.  I made a salad and cleaned the beans.  The rain will give us more for a meal in a day or so.  The green beans are every so slowly coming on this season. I made a batch of homemade granola, and instead of my homemade vanilla extract, I used my homemade Christmas Spice Extract.  It smelled so good in the oven, and while cooling.   I picked some purslane, and am doing an experiment with it this time.  Update soon.   Chit Chat ©  August 2026 by Kristina at Pioneer Woman at Heart
