Homemade Graham Crackers

Homemade Graham Crackers, are easy to make, and you can control the ingredients, such as how much sugar and honey you put in them! I love making them for my grandchildren, and you can't beat the taste of homemade!

I first encountered this recipe in a very old community church cookbook, part of the adventure in those types of cookbooks is discovering if the recipes are actually correct! In this recipe I found the liquid to dry ratio off, and had to add more liquid ingredients to make the dough hold together, so the recipe I'm sharing today is my version of the original recipe.

Jan's Tip: Feel free to play around with your sweeteners, but you'll have to have some trial and error on amounts and keeping your dry to liquid ratio ok for baking the dough.
