Homemade Graham Crackers

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour (graham or whole wheat)
  • 1 cup bleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 F.

Combine flours and baking powder.

Cut in the butter or margarine until the mixture has the consistency of cornmeal.

Stir in the sugar. Add the milk to make a stiff dough.

Roll the dough out on a floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut it into squares and prick the dough with a fork. Brush with milk.

Bake the squares on an ungreased baking sheet for 18 minutes or until golden brown.
