Homemade Graham Crackers are a fun activity to make with your kids and are perfect for a quick snack or to put in a school lunch for a treat!

Ingredients

Scale

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

  3. Add the cold butter and cut it into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, milk, and vanilla extract.

  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until a dough forms.

  6. Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/8-inch thickness.

  7. Cut into rectangles or desired shapes and place on the prepared baking sheet.

  8. Use a fork to prick holes in each cracker (for that classic look).

  9. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp.

  10. Allow to cool completely before serving.
