Homemade Graham Crackers (No Sugar Added!)

Last Updated on May 17, 2014 by Janell

We love graham crackers so I have always wanted to make homemade crackers. I have seen a lot of recipes on the internet and they just looked so complicated! So I tried a few ingredients so see if it would work - and it did! These are awesome. Plus if you are trying to limit the sugar intake of your kids - these are sugar free.

I do like to sprinkle just a little bit of sugar on the tops of some of them - but they really don't need it. I think I will also try to cut this recipe in half and bake it in a pie pan for a perfect graham cracker crust! Great for peanut butter pie or a cheesecake.

I love to spend time in the kitchen, so I love it when a recipe comes together so easy! Since you mix the dry and wet ingredients separate, I can have 2 kids helping me. Then I let my oldest cut the squares and poke it. It is a very fun recipe to make with kids. You can even sample the batter - since it also contains no eggs!

Homemade Graham Crackers

• 2 ¼  cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ⅓  teaspoon salt
• ½   teaspoon cinnamon
• ½  cup melted butter (1 stick)
• ½  cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• sugar for dusting, optional

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375*. Lightly grease a 17x11 inch cookie sheet.
2. In a small bowl mix the dry ingredients. In a large bowl mix the wet ingredients. Then pour the dry mix into the wet mix.
3. Spread the mixture into the cookie sheet. I use the palm of my hand. I also divide the mixture into 4 ball and space them out around the pan. It makes it easier to spread it evenly for me.
4. Precut the squares and poke each with a fork a few times. (This will make it easier to cut them when they are cooked.) Bake for 10 minutes. You do not want to over cook them.
5. Serve & enjoy! They don't last too long around my house. They are also perfect for S'mores!

I hope your family loves these as much as we do!
