Something a little different to serve with soup or stew, or for a snack with butter and jam.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup flax seed
1/4 cup wheat germ
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, chilled and cubed
1 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, sunflower and flax seeds, wheat germ, sugar, baking powder and salt.
2. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Stir in the milk to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
4. With floured hands, turn out onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 10 times.
5. Pat the dough into a 7-inch square.
6. Cut into quarters.
7. Cut each quarter into 3 strips.
8. Place 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
9. Brush the tops with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
10. Bake in the centre of a 425 degree F oven until golden, about 12 minutes.
11. Let cool in the pan on a rack.
