(30ml) shortening until the mixture is crumbly. Add ½ cup (.12l) water and 1½ tsp. (7.5ml) honey. Stir the mixture until well mixed and starts to form a ball. Divide into four parts and knead. Roll each ball into a circle and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Poke small holes into the top, being careful not to cut through the entire piece. Bake at 350° F (175° C) for 10 minutes.
