  15. I don't always sprinkle the top of the crackers with coarse salt. It depends on how salty the nuts are.
  16. I use roasted and salted nuts with these. It makes a salty sweet cracker.
  17. I have used slmonds, pecans. macadamian nuts and peanuts with equally good results.
  18. I have often wondered as I make them what would happen if I added garlic and onion salt then the nuts.
  19. You could make a sweet cracker or a savory cracker with these.
  20. You could also sprinkle the crackers with a pepper seasoning and add some heat to the flavor.
  21. I have sprinkled the crackers with crushed cajun trail mix crackers and use that as a topping and that was awesome.
  22. I think you are limited only by you own imagination.
