Amazingly easy crackers





Ingredients:

1 cup each sunflower seeds and sesame seeds
1/4 cup water












In a food processor (or by hand), create a sort of flour from the sunflower seeds. It takes about 2 for the seeds to break down and turn into a more flour-like consistency, although it will be thicker and heavier.



Add the sesame seeds and pulse a few times (or mix in by hand), then slowly add water, stirring or pulsing until a thick paste forms that can be rolled out.
Between two greased pieces of baking (parchment) paper, roll out the paste as thinly as you can while maintaining a uniform thickness. Remove the upper piece of parchment. Score the batter into squares with a sharp knife, and sprinkle with salt and pepper/herbs if you’d like.



Bake at 350°F until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes. The outer edges tend to bake faster - I remove them before becoming too browned, then pop the pan back in the oven for the rest of the batch. Allow to cool thoroughly before gently breaking into squares as scored.
