Homemade Animal Crackers

What kids doesn't love animal crackers? From the traditional animal crackers to teddy grahams to organic bunny crackers, they are all equally loved and very popular in lunches, on picnics, and on the go.
If you read the labels, they aren't the best and have a lot of ingredients and sugar.
What if there were a way to recreate these in a better way that was equally as loved as the original?

• 1 cup almond meal or ground sunflower seeds/sunflower meal. 
• 1/4 cup flax meal
• 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional. If you don't use coconut, use 1/2 cup flax meal so there is at least 1/2 cup more of dry ingredients)
• 1 TBL honey
• Dash of salt
• 1/4 cup cold water.

 You can also add a little cocoa powder to make them chocolate flavored.

Place almond/seed meal into a bowl and add remaining ingredients and stir with a spoon.  Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Spoon batter onto wax paper.  Cover with wax paper and roll out with rolling pin until 1/4-1/8th inch thick.  Cut out shapes. Use mini cookie cutters. The smaller the better!   Place shapes on greased cookie sheet.  Bake in 300° oven for 15 minutes.  Remove from oven and cool on wire rack.  Delicious served with sweetened yogurt!!!!
