You may never buy store bought graham crackers again after having these Homemade Graham Crackers. These are great if you’re looking for a bit of a cleaned up version of a graham cracker. I love graham crackers and I used to eat them as a “healthy” snack, that was until I read the ingredients list. I was a shocked at all the chemicals used to make a cracker. I mean its just a cracker right? Thankfully I came across this homemade version, with simple ingredients you can pick up at your local grocery store.

You know what goes great with graham crackers? I am sure you already know. S’mores!!!! Obvious right? But you can’t just stuff these Homemade Graham Crackers with just any old chocolate and marshmallows. Try using an organic chocolate and non-gmo marshmallows like these Dandies I received in my Degustabox this month.

Homemade Graham Crackers

Yield: 4 dozen crackers

  

Print

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• ½ cup untoasted wheat germ
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

1. Whisk together the flours, wheat germ, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a bowl.
2. Fit an electric mixer with the paddle attachment and on medium speed beat the butter, brown sugar and honey until pale and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture and mix until combined.
3. Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and divide into quarters. Roll out each piece between two sheets of floured parchment paper into rectangles a little larger than 9 x 6-inches and about 1/8 inch thick.
4. Using a fluted pastry wheel or pizza cutter, trim the edges of each rectangle, and divide into three 6 x 3-inch rectangles by just scoring (not cutting all the way through) the dough. Then score each piece in half horizontally and vertically to form four 3 x 1-inch crackers. Stack parchment and dough on a baking sheet and chill in the freezer until firm, about 20 minutes.
5. Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Remove two sheets of dough from the freezer. Pierce crackers using a fork. Transfer to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 8 minutes, rotating halfway through baking. Repeat with the remaining dough. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring crackers to wire racks to cool completely.
