MyLotter Denise (@pentatonicsca) wrote about making her own cracker biscuits. They are gluten free and made with rice flour and almond flour. You can catch up here: Do you follow recipes or make up your own? / myLot.
I loved the thought of making my own crackers but didn’t have rice- or almond flour. I was anxious to try making crackers so I googled cracker recipes and came up with one that used all-purpose flour (which is mostly called self-raising flour here - edit - should be 'mostly called plain flour' here).
You can see the result in the photo. They are quite nice but I forgot to poke them with a fork so they have puffed up like mini-scones. We’ll probably split them and spread them with pate when we have our glass of wine this evening.
EDIT: Major mistake. All-purpose flour is what we call plain flour but I used self-raising flour which is why they're like scones. I'll try with the correct flour in a day or two. Silly me!

@JudyEv You could try it that way. Maybe bake a little longer to if they are not very hard

@wolfgirl569 I should have used plain flour. I got muddled and used the wrong flour.

They look fine. The sprinkled stuff is some dry fruit or some Cumin seeds?
I hope you enjoyed eating them?

@JudyEv
Sesame seeds on Cookies is what I am familiar with.
Not about the Poppy seeds.

But how did they taste?? My stomach doesn’t have eyes, so I really don’t care what they look like.
