Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix oats, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, chia seeds, poppy seeds, and salt in a large bowl. Stir oil, maple syrup, and 3/4 cup room-temperature water in a medium bowl to combine. Pour liquid over oat mixture and toss until mixture is completely soaked. Let sit 10 minutes; mixture will absorb water and thicken.
- Form oat mixture into a ball and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press a second sheet of parchment paper directly on top and, using a rolling pin, flatten to 1/8" thick (the shape doesn't matter). Remove top layer of parchment.
- Bake cracker until golden brown around edges, 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully turn out, parchment side up. Place a fresh sheet of parchment on baking sheet. Remove parchment from cracker, carefully turn cracker over, and return to baking sheet. Bake until firm and golden brown around edges, 15-20 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet, then break into pieces with your hands.

Tips:
- Use a food processor or blender to make the oat flour. This will give you a fine, even flour that will help the crackers come out crispy.
- Be sure to chill the dough before baking. This will help the crackers hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Don't over-bake the crackers. They should be golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Let the crackers cool completely before storing them. This will help them crisp up and become even more flavorful.
- Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
