I tried these today & they were a hit. Super simple to make & the kids really liked them! I think I'll be making these instead of buying from now on.
Homemade Graham Crackers
1/8 cup dry milk (or 1/4 cup evaporated milk)
1/4 cup water
1 TB. lemon juice or vinegar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar (I used light brown)
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3 cups whole wheat flour
1. Mix together dry milk, water, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add brown sugar, honey, oil, vanilla and egg and beat well.
2. Add in salt, baking soda, and flour and beat until well combined. Divide into 2 equal parts. Place each on a greased and floured cookie sheet and roll to about 1/8" thick. Prick all over with a fork.
3. Bake at 375 degrees for bout 15 minutes or until light brown. Remove from oven and cut in squares immediately.
*I used the bottom of my cookie sheets because mine are not flat. Make sure you grease and flour them well so the graham crackers don't stick. Cut and REMOVE them immediately- they harden quickly & are difficult to get off without breaking if you wait too long. Also, I added a few TB. of ground flax seed to mine. I've been adding it to pretty much everything I make lately since I found a huge thing of it at Costco! What the kids {and the husband} don't know won't hurt them, right? In this case, it's good for them!!
