Vegan Graham Crackers With Gluten Free Option Recipes

CRISPY GLUTEN-FREE GRAHAM CRACKERS (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F (176 C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, maple syrup, molasses, and melted coconut oil until well combined and smooth.
• Add in the oat flour, arrowroot starch, and ground flax seeds and mix with a wooden spoon until the flour is completely incorporated. Your dough should not feel too tacky (sticking to your hands) or too dry (crumbly), but should hold its form. If the dough appears too dry, it likely just needs more mixing. If it feels sticky, it needs more oat flour.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper on a large cutting board or countertop. Place dough in the center and then place another sheet of parchment paper on top of the dough. Working from the center out, roll the dough into a large rectangle (~10 x 12 inches) about 1/16-inch thick. Rolling to this thickness makes these crackers crispy (our preferred texture) rather than soft. If you have any difficulty rolling the dough, place it in the fridge to chill for 10-20 minutes and then try again.
• Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into 2-inch x 3-inch rectangles (keep in mind they will expand slightly during baking). Then use a metal spatula lightly floured with oat flour to transfer to a baking sheet. If you have a hard time transferring or handling, pop in the refrigerator to chill for 5-10 minutes. Space crackers ~1 inch apart to allow for spreading.
• Continue rolling out and cutting remaining dough until you have used it all up. Prick each graham cracker twice with a fork. Recipe as written makes ~15 crackers (will vary based on how thinly they are rolled and whether modifying batch size).
• Bake for 10-14 minutes or until slightly firm and darker in color. Watch closely near the end to avoid burning.
• Let cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet, then gently transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy plain, make s'mores, or try our graham cracker crust!
• Once completely cooled, crackers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days at room temperature, 7-10 days in the fridge, or 1-2 months in the freezer. Dough can also be frozen for up to 1 month and rolled/baked after defrosting in the fridge overnight.

VEGAN GLUTEN-FREE GRAHAM CRACKERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat butter-style sticks, brown sugar, agave and molasses until creamy and smooth, 3-4 minutes. In another bowl, whisk remaining ingredients; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; cover and refrigerate until firm enough to roll, about 30 minutes., Preheat oven to 350°. Roll each portion between 2 sheets of parchment into an 10x8-in. rectangle. Using a knife or fluted pastry wheel, cut each rectangle into twenty 2-in. squares. Place 1 in. apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. If desired, prick holes with a fork. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes., Bake until edges are light brown, 10-12 minutes. If desired, re-prick holes with a fork. Cool completely on pans on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
