Whole Wheat Graham Crackers


These are so yummy! I like that they taste delicious and are whole wheat, how fun to make your own graham crackers. When I was little my Mom used to make ice cream sandwiches with ice cream between graham crackers, she still does this for my sons.  This is a recipe from heavenlyhomemaker.com -Sarah

2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup sucanant, rapadura, (or brown sugar)
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. cinnamon
1/3 cup cocoa powder (only if making chocolate graham crackers)
4 T. honey
1/4 cup water
1 t. vanilla
1 stick butter, melted

  • In a bowl stir together the dry ingredients. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well.
  • Place the dough on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Roll out with a piece of waxed paper over the dough.
  • With a cookie cutter cut through dough to make the sizes of squares you would like.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. Turn oven off, leaving the crackers in the oven. Remove after about 30 minutes. Leaving them in the oven will crisp them. Break crackers apart.
