Yield 3 cups of graham cracker crumbs, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups gluten-free flour (1 part each of bean flour, tapioca flour & cornstarch)
1/4 cup sweet rice flour (Mochiko is gluten free)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 3/4 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon salt
7 tablespoons butter or 7 tablespoons margarine, cut into pieces
3 tablespoons cold water
3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flours, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda and salt.
  • Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or two knives until it resembles cornmeal.
  • Stir in cold water, honey and vanilla. Dough should form a ball. If dough is too dry, add more cold water a tbsp at a time.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Get out two cookie sheets and cover with wax or parchment paper. Spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Gather dough into a ball and divide in half. Using a lightly floured cloth covered rolling pin (I use sweet rice flour), roll half of the dough into a rectangle on one of the cookie sheets to about a 1/8" thick. Repeat with the other half.
  • Score dough with a pizza cutter (or knife) into desired shapes and prick all over with a fork. (I like to use plastic forks for pricking since they tend to make rounder and thicker holes.).
  • Very lightly sprinkle all over with sugar.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown and starting to harden. Let cool for 5 minutes before breaking apart. (If not fully crispened, put back in turned off warm oven until crisp.).
