Ingredients

• 2 cups + 1/3 cup + 1/4 cup all-purpose GF flour
• 1 cup sucanat
• 7 Tbsp. chilled palm shortening
• 1/2 tsp. Xanthan gum
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• extra cinnamon/sucanat for sprinkling

Method

1. Mix together flour, xanthan gum, cinnamon, sucanat, baking soda and salt.
2. Add mixed ingredients to food processor and add in chilled shortening.

3. Pulse until well blended and crumbly.
4. Add honey, water and vanilla. Continue processing until dough forms.

5. Place dough in a greased ball and knead until you can form a ball. Then, separate dough into two balls.
6. Press dough onto greased parchment paper lined on a large baking sheet.
7. Roll until about 1/8 in. in thickness.
8. Cut into rectangles with a pizza cutter (I had to also re-cut when they came out).
9. Prick little holes in each cracker with a fork or toothpick.

10. Let sit in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
11. Bake in a preheated oven at 320 degrees for 25 minutes.
12. Sprinkle with sucanat and cinnamon!

Enjoy!!

After making these, I read this recipe for homemade graham crackers at Heavenly Homemakers. They aren’t allergen-free, but I know many of you don’t need allergen-free crackers! They look very yummy, and I think the next time I make these we will totally be cutting them into Christmas shapes, like she did in this post!
