4. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. Spoon the chia seed mixture onto the baking sheet. Cover with another sheet of parchment paper.
6. Using a glass or rolling pin, roll the mixture flat and out to the sides of the baking sheet. When the mixture is evenly distributed, remove and discard the top parchment paper.
