Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and rolled oats.
Add water to the mixture and stir until completely absorbed and the seeds start to gel.
Stir in olive oil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs until evenly combined.
Allow the mixture to sit for about 10 minutes to thicken.
Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, using a spatula to flatten and press it into an even layer, about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick.
Use a knife or pizza cutter to score the flattened mixture into desired cracker shapes, such as rectangles or squares.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and carefully flip the entire sheet of crackers over.
Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before breaking along the scored lines.
Once fully cooled, store the crackers in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
