Unleavened Crumble Communion Bread

Submitted by mermaidmagic

"It's that time of year - 1st Holy Communion is here! I found this on cooks.com, as the Holy Communion recipe posted at zaar contains a nut extract and many children have allergies to nuts. I have yet to make this, so I estimated on prep time."

Very nice taste. I omitted the salt since I used margerine (which has salt in it) and used 1 tbsp sugar since the previous review mentioned it being overly sweet. I thought 1 tbsp was the perfect amount. I've also used butter with this recipe but I like it better with the margerine.

My son and I made this recipe, as a first communion project. It was easy to make and the recipe's directions were right on. However, it was more like eating sugar cut out cookies than bread[maybe that is because we used butter instead of shortening ;)]. But my entire family tired it and loved the taste!!
