Graham Crackers

Cultural Context

Graham crackers originated in the early 19th century, created by Sylvester Graham as part of a health movement promoting vegetarianism and whole grains. They became a staple in American households, often used in desserts like s'mores and pie crusts. Today, they are enjoyed globally in various forms, from snacks to baking ingredients, embodying a blend of health and indulgence.

1

Cream butter, sugars and honey.

2

Sift dry ingredients together.

3

Stir in graham cracker crumbs.

4

Add to butter and mix until almost combined.

5

Add Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla and half and half. Beat until smooth.

6

Wrap dough in plastic and chill for at least one hour.

7

Preheat oven to 300°F.

8

Let dough sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before rolling out between two pieces of parchment paper (or two silpats) to about ⅛” thickness.

9

With a bench scraper or ruler, push edges in to keep dough in a rectangle, the same shape as the sheet pan you are using.

10

Once it is the right size, lift off the top piece of parchment and move the dough, still on the bottom layer of parchment, to the sheet pan.

11

Using a fork, make indentations every inch or so down the length of the dough.

12

Chill the formed and docked dough for about 20 minutes.

13

Sprinkle dough lightly with cinnamon sugar.

14

Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning half way through baking.

15

Once removed from the oven and resting on a cooling rack, carefully cut to desired shapes trimming any edges that may be darker than the center.

16

Let dough rest and it will crisp up as it cools.
