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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix with a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey, vanilla extract, and milk.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to roughly 1/8-inch thickness using a floured rolling pin.

Step 7

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.

Step 8

Place the cut-out cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 1/2 inch of space between each cookie.

Step 9

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.

Step 10

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.

Step 11

Enjoy your homemade Whole Wheat Graham Cracker Cookies on their own or with your favorite spreads, dips, or hot beverages.
