• Shy of 1 cup (220 ml) water

1. In a small bowl, combine flaxseed meal and chia seeds. Add water, mix and set aside for 20-30 minutes.

2.  In a large bowl, mix together sunflower, pumpkin and sesame seeds, oats, flour, salt, pepper, and garlic. Add the chia seed mixture, tomato paste, and oil. Mix well to combine using a spatula or your hands.

1.  Preheat oven to 365°F (180°C).

2.  Line a baking sheet (mine is 9x13 in) with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture to a baking sheet and spread to an even layer with a spatula or wet hand. Bake for 35-40 minutes.

3.  Cut into 48 rectangular crackers.

4.  Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container for up to 5 days, although I'm sure they will be gone way before that.
