Heat oven to 400 degrees. Melt 1/3 cup butter in a 13x9x2-inch pan in oven.

2 1/4 c. sifted whole wheat flour
2-3 tbsp. sugar
3 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 c. milk

Stir slowly with fork until dough just clings together. Turn onto well-floured board. Roll over to coat with flour. Knead lightly about 12 times.

Roll out 1/2-inch thick into a 12x8-inch rectangle. With a floured knife, cut dough in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 16 strips. Carefully pick up each strip and dip both sides in the melted butter in the pan. Lay close together in pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-25 minutes.

CHEESE: Add 1/2 cup grated sharp American cheese to dry ingredients.

GARLIC: Add 1/2 clove finely minced garlic or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder to butter before melting.

SEASONED: Sprinkle either paprika, celery seed, garlic or onion salt over dips before baking.

Add 1/4 cup minced chives or parsley to flour mixture.
