After searching the grocery store shelves for an affordable, healthy choice of grahams (and failing to find anything), I decided to make my own :)
This is a recipe that I formulated myself, after having viewed quite a few recipes online. My family thought they were really good, with just the right texture and sweetness!
Ingredients:
1/2 c butter
1/4 c packed brown sugar
1/4 c honey
1 t vanilla extract2 c sprouted wheat flour
1 c unbleached flour
1 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1/2 c milk
Directions:
Cream together the butter, sugar and honey. Stir in vanilla and milk.
Mix together the flours, baking powder and soda, and salt.
Combine the two mixtures until incorporated. I had to knead on a floured surface to get them into a nice dough.
Chill dough until firm (from 1-4 hours)
Preheat the oven to 350 F. and grease cookie sheets (I used coconut oil).
Roll dough out to 1/8" and cut into rectangles. I scored the dough to look more like store-bought grahams. Place grahams 1/2" apart on cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until browned on edges and crisp.*
*Before baking, you may sprinkle with a little cinnamon-sugar for a sweeter treat.
Enjoy ;)
