4. In a different bowl mix all the different types of flour and baking powder and add to the milk mixture. Mix all the ingredients until there is a smooth dough, knead the dough and let is set for 10 minutes.

5. Thinly roll the dough, add a bit of water to the surface and add the flax seeds. Press the seeds into the surface to make sure they stay in place during baking. Cut the dough into appropriate sized crackers and bake at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
