Combine 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/4 cup chia seeds, and a healthy pinch of salt in a bowl.

Add 3/4 cup of cool water to the seed mixture and mix well.

Let the mixture sit to hydrate the seeds and thicken for a few minutes.

Prepare the chocolate version by combining a tablespoon each of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and chia seeds, along with a half tablespoon of cocoa nibs and a pinch of salt in a smaller bowl.

Add 2 scoops of water and 1 scoop of maple syrup to the chocolate mixture, along with 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder, and mix well.

Let both mixtures sit until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Spread the plain mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, using hands or a spatula to guide it into the corners.

For the chocolate version, spread the mixture onto a separate piece of parchment paper, cutting the parchment to fit the air fryer if necessary.

Preheat the air fryer to 300°F and cook the chocolate crackers for 15 minutes, checking for doneness.

For the plain crackers, preheat the oven to 300°F and bake for 15 minutes, then score them with a pizza cutter if desired.

Return the scored crackers to the oven for an additional 15 minutes, checking for crispness.

Remove the crackers from the oven; they will be soft at first but will crisp up as they cool.

Once cooled, break the crackers into pieces and store in an airtight container.
