Easy Homemade Graham Crackers Recipe
First up, let’s set the mood with a classic image of these delightful treats that you can soon call your own!
Now, before we dive into the kitchen, let’s gather our superhero ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup milk
Got everything? Great! Now let’s get our hands doughy!
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Like magic, it’s warm and ready to transform your dough into crunchy bliss!
- In a large mixing bowl, combine both flours, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until it resembles a sandy beach (but without the ocean).
- Add the softened butter to the flour mixture. Now, using your fingertips, mix until it looks like coarse crumbs—think granola, but a bit less crunchy.
- Pour in the honey and milk. Knead that mixture like you’re giving it a good pep talk, about 1-2 minutes until it forms a dough. Watch out, dough—you’re about to become something special!
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about ¼ inch thickness. Use a knife or pizza cutter to get those perfect cracker shapes. Feel free to channel your inner artist here!
- Place the shaped crackers onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. For an extra touch, use a fork to poke holes in them. This isn’t just for decoration; it helps the crackers bake evenly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are lightly golden brown. The delicious smell will probably convince your neighbors to come knocking!
- Let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack. Patience is key, my friend; you don’t want to burn your taste buds, do you?
- Once cooled, feel free to munch on them as-is or use them for s’mores. You can never go wrong with a little chocolate and marshmallow!
And there you have it! You’re now the proud creator of your very own homemade graham crackers. Enjoy your crunchy triumph, and don’t forget to share (if you must)! Happy snacking!
