Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C

Combine water, butter, oil, and black sesame powder in a pot over medium heat. Make sure to whisk the black sesame powder until there are no lumps and everything has melted together.

Take it off the heat.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients.

Pour the black sesame liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir to combine.
