These buttery & utterly delicious homemade Graham Crackers are the perfect summer staple for S’mores. Specially developed by Anatomy of a Kitchen for those of our friends who can not have gluten. These Crackers have a wonderful toothy grit that we have come to expect from a traditionally made Graham. Most Graham Crackers are made with Graham flour; a specially made wheat flour that is courser in texture & has not been sifted. To give us this texture in a gluten free form, we added toasted oat bran & ground flax seed. Flavored with honey, cinnamon & a touch of molasses, they truly deliver.
Wendi’s Gluten-Free Grahams
serves 6 (12 crackers)
1/2 cup butter softened
1/4 cup honey
1 tbsp. molasses
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup Gluten Free flour (I use Ancient Grains)
1/3 cup oat bran
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg (use a microplane zester for this)
1/4 tsp. salt
1.) Beat butter with next four ingredients until smooth. Whisk together dry ingredients then stir into butter mixture with a wooden until well combined.
2.) Shape into a smooth ball and divide in half. Flatten each half out into a circle between two pieces of parchment paper and refrigerate for about 20 minutes. Roll each half out on the back side of two cookie sheets (between the parchment paper) into a rectangle measuring slightly larger than 6x9 inches. Peel off top sheet of parchment & score each rectangle into 3” squares, that will give you 6 squares per pan (12 total). Put in the freezer to firm up.
3.) Preheat oven to 350f. Remove crackers from freezer & prick each square a couple times with the tine of a fork, if desired at this point, you may cut a heart or other decorative shape (crescent, star) in the center of 6 of the crackers. Bake until crisp & golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven & score one more time will still warm. Cool completely and snap apart into individual squares.

Wendi’s Gluten Free S’mores…
makes 6 s’mores
1 recipe of Gluten Free Graham Crackers (12 crackers)
12 marshmallows (homemade if you have the time & finesse for it)
12 pieces of Artisan Chocolate (use quality chocolate)
Roast two marshmallows over an open fire turning frequently until the perfect golden brown. The trick here is low & slow…You need enough time to melt the interior of the marshmallow. Place 2 pieces of chocolate on the bottom half, top with hot marshmallows. Using top half of cracker (this will be the one you have cut the shape into…) sandwich it all together while pulling the marshmallows off the stick. Pure bliss…
