Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Stir in honey and vanilla extract until well combined.

Add water gradually until the dough comes together; it should be slightly sticky.

Divide the dough into two portions and roll each portion between two sheets of parchment paper until about 1/8 inch thick.

Cut the rolled dough into squares or rectangles using a knife or pizza cutter.

Transfer the cut pieces onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Prick the tops of the crackers with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Store in an airtight container once completely cooled.
