Ingredients

Servings

2 Tbsp coconut sugar (or sub organic cane sugar)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 Tbsp molasses (we used blackstrap molasses)
2 ½ Tbsp melted coconut oil*
1 ¼ cup oat flour (ground from gluten-free oats // see notes for substitution ideas)
1/4 cup arrowroot starch (we think cornstarch would also work, and maybe also tapioca starch)
1 ½ tsp ground flax seeds (also called flaxseed meal)

Instructions

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.

Notes

*If nut-free, we'd suggest vegan butter in place of coconut oil.*If you can't tolerate or would rather not use oats, the next closest sub would be a gluten-free flour blend. Note that we haven't tested with a gluten-free blend and can't guarantee the results.*Nutrition information is a rough estimate.
