How to Make Graham Wafers

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  3. Cut in softened butter and shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, molasses, water, and vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Form the dough into a ball, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough between two sheets of waxed paper to about ⅛ inch thickness.
  8. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 2-inch squares.
  9. Carefully peel off the top sheet of waxed paper.
  10. Transfer the graham cracker squares to the prepared baking sheets.
  11. Prick each square several times with a fork.
  12. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  13. Let the graham crackers cool completely on the baking sheets before serving.
  14. Store leftover graham crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
