Servings
About 30 crackers
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Sunflower Seeds
  • 1/4 cup Pumpkin Seeds (Pepitas)
  • 1/4 cup Flax Seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Get Started

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine Seeds

In a medium bowl, combine the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, salt and garlic powder. Mix all the dry ingredients together well to ensure they are evenly distributed.

Add Wet Ingredients

Add the olive oil and water to the seed mixture. Stir well until all the seeds are coated. The mixture should be wet enough to spread easily.

Spread on Baking Sheet

Pour the seed mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment paper on top of the mixture. Use a rolling pin to roll the mixture out thinly and evenly between the two sheets of parchment paper, about 1/8 inch thick. Make sure there are no thick clumps.

Remove Top Parchment Paper

Carefully remove the top sheet of parchment paper. If necessary, use a knife to gently flatten any raised areas and even out the mixture.

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crispy around the edges. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. The baking time may vary depending on your oven.

Cool and Break

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the crackers cool completely on the parchment paper. As they cool, they will harden and become crispier. Once cooled, break them into irregular-shaped crackers. Serve them as is or with your favorite toppings.
