Honey Graham Crackers

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

3. Add the Wet Ingredients: Mix in the honey, vanilla extract, and milk to the creamed butter mixture until well combined.

4. Incorporate the Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough feels sticky, add a little more flour until it comes together cleanly. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

5. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

6. Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter or a knife to cut out individual cracker shapes. If desired, you can prick the tops of the crackers with a fork to create the classic design.

7. Bake the Crackers: Transfer the cut-out crackers to the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

8. Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the graham crackers from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack. The crackers will continue to crisp up as they cool. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
