These two-seed crackers are adapted from " Essential Baking"( Murdock Books ).
Those two seeds are poppy seeds and sesame seeds.
Since I rolled the crackers too thick (They actually only needs to 2mm (1/6 inch )and I forgot to prick the crackers before baking. So , they didn't look like crackers at all and a bit hard after baking for 40 mins.( The thickness that I made caused these crackers took longer time to bake)
The crackers taste good but a bit hard after baking. I will try to make it again and roll out to 2mm and prick them with fork in order to get better result.

250 g all purpose flour
