scraunched
(past participle of "scraunch")
to make crunching noises; "his shoes scraunched on the gravel"
But "scraunched" isn't very common. Another one frequently cited is "strengths." At nine letters, it's one shorter than "scraunched," and it is the shortest English word that has only one vowel.
