Ingredients
- 1 leeve Graham crackers (9 sheets of 4 crackers), roughly crushed--see note
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted
- 3 tablespoons sugar (granulated or light/dark brown, your choice)--see note
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, see note)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, see note)
- pinch kosher or fine sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine crushed graham crackers, sugar, salt, and cinnamon (if using) in a medium bowl. Add melted butter and vanilla (if using), and stir to fully coat the crumb mixture.
- Spread crumbs onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 8-12 minutes, until light golden brown and fragrant. Watch the crumbles carefully so they don't burn (mine most often takes around 10 minutes, but times will vary by oven and brand of graham crackers used). The graham cracker mixture will be soft when you take it out of the oven and will crisp as it cools.
- Cool the mixture to room temperature and break it up into crumbles. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, 1 week in the refrigerator, or 3 months in the freezer. Return to room temperature before using the crumble to top your favorite sweet treats (such as parfaits, ice cream, or yogurt).
Notes
- Graham Crackers: To crush grahams, place the crackers in a zip top bag and crush with a rolling pin or the bottom of a measuring cup. Or, pulse the graham crackers in a food processor. I like to roughly crush the grahams, creating a mixture of fine crumbs and medium-sized chunks, for a well-textured crumble.
- Using Nabisco Original Grahams (recommended), this comes out to about 1-1/2 cups of crushed crackers, 135 grams.
- Sugar: When using graham cracker brands made with molasses, I use granulated sugar to make the crumbles. When using honey grahams, or when I want to add a little depth of flavor, I'll use brown sugar. This recipe is very adaptable and customizable.
- Cinnamon and Vanilla: Optional, depending on the type/brand of graham crackers you're using. If you've bought honey grahams, you might want to add a touch of cinnamon. If using cinnamon grahams, omit. I find that some graham cracker brands can use a little extra "oomph" from a splash of vanilla.
