Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaxseed meal, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, and hemp seeds. Stir well to ensure an even distribution.
Add the water, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to the seed mixture. Mix thoroughly until the seeds are well-coated and the mixture begins to thicken as the chia seeds absorb the water.
Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes, giving the chia seeds enough time to gel and bind the ingredients together.
Once the mixture has set, spread it evenly over the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula or your hands to flatten it to an even layer that's about 1/8-inch thick.
Score the flattened seed mixture with a knife into the desired cracker size and shape. This will make it easier to break them apart after baking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the baking sheet, carefully flip the entire sheet of crackers, and bake for an additional 30 minutes until they are crisp and golden.
Allow the crackers to cool completely on a wire rack before breaking them apart along the scored lines.
Store the crackers in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Enjoy your nut-free crunchy seed crackers as a snack or an accompaniment to dips and cheeses.
