Anyway, these were so delicious and made from normal pantry ingredients. No eggs, no butter, no refined sugar! I just happened to have a stash of coconut sugar in my pantry, but you could totally use brown or white sugar in these and it would taste just as good. I like the coconut sugar because it has a nice, kind of, molassey flavor. (I keep ending everything in Y and spell check is getting mad at me). You could absolutely sub butter for the coconut oil, but coconut oil is healthier... so if you're going for the health factor than coconut oil it is. Also, to make gluten free, you could easily sub a gluten free all purpose flour. Enjoy! These were so delicious!
Graham Crackers
Makes: 8 large crackers (depending on the thickness you make them)
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all purpose organic flour (may sub whole wheat or gluten free)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
5 Tablespoons coconut palm sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
4 Tablespoons warm water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl combine the wet ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold with a spatula until the mixture begins to clump together. Fold the dough with hands until all is evenly combined and forms a ball. Sprinkle some flour on a flat table surface and use a rolling pin to flatten the dough down to the thickness of a typical graham cracker. Cut into rectangles and place on a baking sheet. You can use a skewer, chopstick or fork to poke holes so it resembles a store bought graham cracker. Bake for 15 minutes, until crispy. This may vary depending on the thickness of the cracker. Keep an eye on them so they don't brown too much.
