Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar, tightly packed
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.
Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix with a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey, vanilla extract, and milk.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add an additional teaspoon of milk at a time until it holds together.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to roughly 1/8-inch thickness using a floured rolling pin.
Use cookie cutters or a sharp knife to cut the rolled dough into desired shapes (rectangles for classic graham cracker look, or fun shapes for cookies). Poke small holes into the cookies with a fork or skewer to create the signature graham cracker design.
Place the cut-out cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 1/2 inch of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your homemade Whole Wheat Graham Cracker Cookies on their own or with your favorite spreads, dips, or hot beverages.
