Things Needed:


large bowl

small bowl

rolling pin

3 1/2 cups flour

2 cups rye flour

1 cup corn meal

2 cups cracked wheat

1/2 cup dry milk

4 t. salt

1 envelope active dry yeast

1/4 cup very warm water

2 to 3 cups chicken broth or other liquid

1 large egg, beaten w/1 T. milk

cookie sheets


Mix flours, cracked wheat, corn meal, dry milk, and salt in large bowl. Sprinkle yeast over warm water and stir in small bowl and add the yeast and 2 cups of broth to the dry ingredients. Mix well with hands. The dough will be very stiff. If necessary, add a little more broth. Roll out dough on floured surface to 1/4" thickness and cut into desired shapes or squeeze into shapes. Place on ungreased sheets and brush with egg/milk mixture. Bake for 45 minutes at 300 degrees. Turn off oven and leave in the oven for overnight. If desired, substitute water that was left from the veggies for broth.



Peanut Butter Cookies


4 1/2 cups flour

1 1/3 cups cornmeal

6 Tablespoons peanut butter

1 cup applesauce (with one batch, I just pureed a regular raw apple)

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup sunflower or sesame seeds, optional

1 egg for basting


Mix all the dry ingredients. Add peanut butter, milk, eggs and applesauce. Mix well until dough is firm. Let it stand for 15-20 minutes. While waiting, set the oven at 350 degrees. Roll out the dough on floured surface to a 1/4" thickness. Cut into shapes with a cookie cutter. Baste with egg and then sprinkle with seeds, if desired. Bake to 30 to 40 minutes. Cool on wire racks. This makes approximately 4 dozen biscuits, depending on the cut size.


Crunchy Biscuits


5 T bouillon - any flavor dissolved in 3 C boiling water, or 3 C meat drippings (bring to a boil before adding other ingredients)

2 C oatmeal

1/2 C oil1 C wheat or oat bran

1/2 C honey (optional)

2 eggs

6 - 8 C white or wheat flour


Add oatmeal, oil, bran and honey to liquid while still hot. Carefully add eggs so they don't cook in lumps. Mix in flour gradually until dough is stiff. Roll out. Cut w/ cookie cutters. Bake on cookie sheet at 325 degrees for one hour. Turn off the oven, allow biscuits to remain in the oven overnight. They will be hard and crunchy. Store in a paper bag or cardboard box. Do not store in an air tight container.
