Graham Crackers

2 c. whole wheat flour
scant t. baking powder
1/3 c. dry milk powder
1/4 t. soda
pinch of salt
1/2 t. cinnamon

Mix in bowl. Make a nest and add:

1/3 c. applesauce or canola oil
1/2 c. warm honey
1 t. vinegar or lemon juice
1 T. vanilla
2 T. water

As you mix, this should form a stiff pie-crust type dough. As wheat flours differ in moisture content, you may need to add more or less flour. You can add up to 1/4 c more flour if dough is too limp.

Roll out evenly on baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Dough should be 1/8'' to 1/4'' thick on large tray. Score into small or large squares, or cut shapes with cookie cutters (Parker chose candy canes, snowflakes, and snowmen). If you make large squares, prick with fork to allow hot air to escape. Bake @ 350 for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. You may need to take the crackers around the edges out at about 5-6 minutes, and let the rest brown. These make great ice cream sandwiches or pie crust crumbs. Makes 1 large tray.

This recipe is taken from a book by Rita Bingham called "Natural Meals in Minutes." I'm LOVING the stuff I'm finding in here! Thanks, Mom and Dad, for letting me borrow it. Maybe someday it will find its way back to your kitchen. ;)
