more homemade crackers

Graham crackers used to mean a high price tag or a trip to Whole Foods (not really an "or" since it's so far away!)  A big, big thank you to the Feingold moms who shared their recipes with me!  It was hard to pick which one to try first.  I think these would be even better with a little cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top, which is basically what Rachel did with them anyway.

Homemade Graham Crackers

1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour

1 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour

1/2 Cup Dark Brown Sugar, packed

1/2 Tsp Salt

1 Tsp Cinnamon

1 Tsp Baking Soda

1/2 Cup Butter, chilled & cubed

1/4 Cup Honey

1/4 Cup Water


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a food processor or mixer combine the first 6 ingredients.

3. Add cubed and chilled butter to the mix and pulse/mix until it resembles coarse meal.

4. Add honey and water and continue to mix until it all combines.

5. Remove and shape the dough into a flat disk and place between two pieces of parchment paper.

6. Roll dough out until 1/4 inch thick. Cut into crackers or shapes.

7. Place cookies on aluminum foil or parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.

8. Cool and serve.
