Carrot crackers

I know that many parents of fussy eaters are wanting their child to eat more (or any) veggies. If a child is not able to eat them on their own, often we look for options that our child can comfortably eat that have veggies incorporated.

I was researching recipes that have carrots in but that could rock for a picky eater and found this one. Yeah, delicious and zero taste of carrot.

I am certainly not advocating hiding veggies, but this could be a great one to cook with the children.

Recipe

1 cup flour (I used whole meal)
2 tbs grated parmesan (tasty cheese would also work)
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup grated carrot (I then chopped finely with a knife)
2 tbs light tasting oil (I used olive oil, but next time would use half butter)

Mix all the ingredients except the oil

Add the oil and form a dough (I added ¾ of tbs water to bring it together)
Roll out (I used 2 silicon sheets and a rolling pin) – I made the dough fairly thick
Cut into crackers
Bake in a 205˚ oven for approx. 15 mins
Cool
