Ingredients
- ½ cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 1 cup ground flax seeds
- ⅓ cup sesame seeds
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cup water
Additional Flavorings
- Herbs and spices Add up to 2 tablespoons of your favorites. I added ½ teaspoon ground garlic, ½ teaspoon ground onion, 1 teaspoon dried thyme and 1 teaspoon dried basil
Instructions
- Blend the pumpkin seeds. Preheat your oven to 200°F (100°C). Add the pumpkin seeds to a food processor and pulse several times, until it resembles coarse sand.
- Mix everything. In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin seeds and all remaining ingredients. Stir together for a minute, until the seeds start to gel together.
- Roll it out. Grab two 11x17 baking sheets and set aside. Place half the mixture on a large piece of parchment paper. Place another piece of parchment paper on top and roll to your desired thickness. Repeat with the other half.
- Score. Use a knife to score the mixture into evenly sized pieces.
- Bake. Place the parchment sheets with the cracker mixture onto the baking sheets and cook for 2½ to 3 hours or until fully dehydrated, rotating the pans halfway through. Allow crackers to cool completely, then break apart.

Notes
- Store the crackers for up to two weeks in a sealed container in the pantry.
