Ingredients
  

  • 1 dl oatmeal
  • 1 dl sesame seeds
  • 1 dl flaxseed
  • 1 dl sunflower seeds
  • 1 dl pumpkin seeds
  • dl wheat flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 2 dl water
  • dl oil

Instructions
 

  • Turn the oven to 200 ° C (or 390 ° F)
  • Mix all the dry ingredients together. Spare a bit if you prefer of some or all of the seeds to sprinkle on the top of the knækbrød.
  • Add the wet ingredients, and knead, or stir it all into a uniform, slightly sticky dough.
  • Divide the dough into two equal sized doughs.
  • Roll out each part thinly between two pieces of baking paper. It must be rolled out so that it roughly fits a regular size baking tray.
  • Place the rolled out dough with baking paper on the baking tray and remove the top piece of parchment paper.
  • Cut the dough into rectangles, squares, triangles, or however you want to form it with a sharp knife or with a pizza cutter.
  • Sprinkle with seeds if you have spared some.
  • Put the knækbrød - crispbreads - in the oven for approx. 15-20 minutes, until they have a golden glow and are thoroughly baked.
