Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 1/4 cups milk, heated to boiling
- 1/4 cup softened butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons anise seed, crushed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cup rye flour

Preparation
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats and boiling milk. let stand until cooled, about 1 hour. Stir in the butter, sugar, baking powder, anise seed, salt and rye flour. Mix in the all-purpose flour slowly to make a stiff dough. Knead until blended.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line the baking sheets with parchment paper.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured breadboard and divide into two parts. Roll out one part at a time to make a 16 x 12-inch rectangle. Transfer to a baking sheet. Using a ruler and pastry wheel, cut into 2 x 3-inch crackers and leave the crackers in place. Repeat for a second part of the dough.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Cool on the sheet before removing. Store in airtight containers.
