Multigrain Tea Time Crackers is what I love eating most. So like people have sweet tooth, I have a savory one. I still remember when my mom use to make Matris , how much I would eat them till she would hide it somewhere. I have always be fond of papdis and namkeen more than sweets. So baking a savory is more for my own cravings than anyone else. These Multigrain Tea Time Crackers are my answer to my first love of Matris.
However it proved wrong in case of these Multigrain Tea Time Crackers. I hardly got to taste much as my husband who was apparently working from home when I made these. So both him and my son both kept munching over these and before I realised they were over. So yes..may be its time I make them again for self :).
These are very easy but the only thing is to bake them as you make the dough ready otherwise oats and poha both tend to soak the moisture and make the dough crumbly which ofcourse is not what you really want with your Multigrain Tea Time Crackers. These Crackers not just go perfectly well with Tea or Coffee but even a good fit for tiffin too or an eveing munchie!
