Healthy Fruit & Nut Crackers Recipe

Pasant Elzaitony Crackers are a favorite snack for everyone, especially during the summer, when food cravings decrease. Crackers are an easy solution for providing healthy nutrients for adults and children alike. 1/2 cup all purpose flour 1/2 cup whole wheat flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped 1 tbsp fresh thyme, finely chopped 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/8 tsp nutmeg 1/8 tsp black pepper 3/4 cup dried fruit, chopped (apricots, figs, dates, raisins, cherries, etc) 3/4 cup nuts or seeds, chopped (pistachios, pecans, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, etc) 2 tsp orange or lemon zest 1 cup milk of choice (we used oat milk, but any kind works) 1/4 cup honey Preheat oven to 350˚F and line two mini loaf pans (~5 1/2' x 3 1/4') or one regular loaf pan (~8 1/2' x 4 1/2') with parchment paper. Add both flours, baking soda, salt, herbs, cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper, dried fruit, nuts and zest to a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined. Stir in the milk and honey until well combined and no streaks of honey remain. Divide between the 2 mini pans (or just the 1 regular loaf pan). Bake for ~25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Let cool to room temperature, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight. (You can also leave them frozen for up to 3 months, as long as they are tightly wrapped.) Remove from the freezer and preheat oven to 300˚F. Use a serrated knife to slice into 1/8' thick slices. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12 minutes, then flip each cracker over. Bake for another 12 minutes, then check for doneness. They should be golden brown and feel dry to the touch, but they may still look soft due to the fruit. Don't worry - they will crisp up as they dry! If they're not quite golden brown, flip and leave in the oven for another 3-6 minutes. Let cool completely, then enjoy! read more 15 Ludicrous Cosplay Costumes That Will Blow You Away Watch...

Power outages sweep Egypt during Eid al-Adha

Egyptians across the country complained of power outages during the Eid al-Adha holiday, without prior notice from electricity companies regarding outage times or regular maintenance. This interrupted their celebration of the holiday and even impacted high school students preparing for their final exams. It also damaged some electrical appliances. An official source at the Ministry of Electricity confirmed that there was no load shedding done in any area of ​​the governorates, and that the cause of the outages was increased consumption and pressure on the networks. In Minya Governorate, Upper Egypt, residents of Samalut Center, north of the governorate, complained of repeated power outages in several areas, with outages lasting for more than three consecutive hours. In Beni Suef, various centers and neighborhoods in the governorate experienced repeated power outages. At Qalyubia, Nile Delta, the Mit Halfa area of ​​Qalyub experienced a power outage on the second day of Eid al-Adha for more than four hours. The village's electricity official stated that the outage was due to a technical fault in one of the connections. The outage was eventually repaired and service was restored. Sharqiya saw a large number of Belbeis residents complain of power outages during the holiday, in addition to a weak power supply when it returned, which impacted the operation of electrical appliances. In Suez, residents of the 'Salam 1' area complained of a two-hour power outage during the day of Eid, amidst baking temperatures. Within the Bagour district, the Electricity Company announced a three-hour power outage from 6:00 am to 9:00 am as part of a plan to develop and improve the electrical grid. In Monufiya, residents expressed their discontent over the frequent power outages during Eid al-Adha. And in North Sinai, power was cut off in the villages of Sheikh Zuweid area due to a fault in the transformer supplying the area. The fault was repaired and electricity was restored immediately, according to an official source in the governorate's electricity company. Edited translation from Al-Masry Al-Youm
