Walnut Cracker Bread

This crunchy, easy-to-make cracker bread keeps very well in an airtight container.  Reheat it for 5 minutes in a 350°F oven to make sure it is nice and crisp before serving.

It makes a great afternoon snacks or little nibble with drinks and is superb with cheese.  The seeds and nuts can be altered to your taste.
