Saloon pilot crackers - We all grew up eating these crackers from
diamond bakery or Hilo Macaroni Factory. For those unable to get
these crackers in the store, here is a simple recipe for you to try.
Preheat oven to 400F.
Mix all ingredients together. Turn onto a floured board and knead for
five minutes. Let dough rest for 10 minutes. Knead again for a couple
minutes and allow dough to rest for another 10 minutes. Roll out the
dough to 1/4" thick. Use the rim of a cup or container to cut out 3"-
4" circles. Use a fork or skewer to prick the center of the circle a
few times. Arrange on 2 baking sheets and bake for 20 minutes
rotating baking sheets every 5 minutes. Turn oven off and leave
crackers in oven until completely cool. This is what gives the
crackers the "hard tack" texture.
Makes 9-12 crackers (depending on size)
