Vegan Graham Crackers Recipe

Homemade graham crackers are easier than you think! This recipe, inspired by Fran Costigan's "Vegan Chocolate" (a must-have cookbook!), skips the specialty graham flour. We'll toast all-purpose flour for a similar delicious result. Making your own powdered sugar ensures a perfect texture, avoiding the cornstarch found in store-bought versions (though you can cheat if you're short on time!). Perfect for snacking or making graham cracker crumbs (yields about 2 cups). Get ready to bake some irresistible, vegan-friendly goodness!

How to Make Vegan Graham Crackers

  1. **Toast the Flour:** Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread 2 cups all-purpose flour evenly on the baking sheet.
  2. **Toast:** Bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly golden.
  3. **Cool:** Let the toasted flour cool completely before proceeding.
  4. **Make Powdered Sugar (or use store-bought):** If using granulated sugar, blend 1 cup granulated sugar in a blender until it becomes powdered sugar.
  5. **Sift Dry Ingredients:** In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups toasted flour, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. **Whisk Wet Ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together ⅓ cup vegetable oil, ⅓ cup maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  7. **Combine Wet and Dry:** Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  8. **Add Water:** Mix in 2 tablespoons of water.
  9. **Rest:** Let the dough rest for 5 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid.
  10. **Adjust Consistency:** Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough forms a smooth, slightly glossy ball that holds its shape. It should be pliable but not sticky.
  11. **Roll the Dough:** Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out to a 1/4-inch thickness and approximately 14 x 10 inches.
  12. **Trim and Cut:** Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Trim the edges to create a neat rectangle. Cut into 2-inch squares.
  13. **Poke Holes:** Use a fork to poke holes all over each graham cracker square.
  14. **Bake:** Transfer the parchment paper with the crackers to a baking sheet. Bake for 11-12 minutes, or until the tops are dry and the bottoms are lightly browned.
  15. **Cool:** Let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack before breaking them apart.
