Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cups graham flour
  • 1/2 cup unbleached white flour
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup whole milk + 2 tablespoons
  • Cinnamon Sugar Grinder (for topping crackers)

Directions

  1. Cut the butter into ½-inch cubes and put it in the freezer while you prepare the other ingredients.

  2. .Put both flours, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt and brown sugar into a food processor and pulse until it is combined.

  3. .In a separate bowl, combine the honey, ¼ cup milk and vanilla. They do not need to be well mixed, just stirred together so it may be added to the dry ingredients at once.

  4. .Add the butter into the food processor and pulse until butter is incorporated and the mixture is like fine crumbles (pulsing about a minute).

  5. .Pour in the honey, milk and vanilla mixture, and turn on the food processor until large clumps of dough form. Want to ensure your dough is coming along correctly? See how mine turned out on Spice Islands’ Facebook page.

  6. .Remove the dough and use your hands to press the dough together and form two disks. Wrap the disks in parchment paper and put them in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. If you plan to keep it in the Remove the disks one at a time and use a rolling pin dusted in graham flour to roll out the dough until it is 1/8-inch thick. If you don’t roll the dough thin enough, the crackers will be thick and may not be crunchy. You can see how thin mine are on Spice Islands’ Facebook page.

  7. .Use a pastry cutter or pizza wheel to cut into 2 ½-inch squares. Make holes in the crackers with the tong of a fork if you want them to resemble store-bought graham crackers. Have leftover dough? Click here for fun ways to use up your extra dough!

  8. .Using a sharp spatula, transfer the crackers onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

  9. .Using the 2 tablespoons of milk, brush a light coating of milk on top of each cracker.

  12. 2.Remove the pans from the oven and let the crackers cool.

  13. 3.Store the crackers in an airtight container for a week.
