S'mores From Scratch Challenge: Cinnamon Graham Crackers



Home made graham crackers:  Uber comfort food that will make your house smell amazing.  Dip these puppies in mik or do what I'm doing and take the S'mores From Scratch Challenge.  Tonight Grahams.  Tomorrow I'll be putting it all together with toasted cajeta marshmallows and warm Dagoba Chocolate. 

Thick Crisp Cinnamon Grahams

1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup graham flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablepoons molassas
2 tablespoons whole milk
3/4 cups dark brown sugar
2 sticks unsalted butter, chilled and cut in cubes
1/4 cup granulated sugar + 1 teaspoon cinnamon for sprinkling

Preheat the oven to 350.  Put the flours, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and brown sugar in to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to mix.  Add the chilled, cubed butter and pulse until the mixture resembles cornmeal.  Mix together the milk and molassas and add to the food processor and continue processing until a ball forms in the bowl.  Remove the dough and between two layers of parchment paper, roll it in to a large rectangle approximately 1/8" thick.  Peel off the top layer and with a fluted pastry wheel or a pizza cutter, score the dough in to individual crackers and dock each cracker with a fork.  Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together.  Liberally sprinkle on top and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.  Cool on a cookie rack.  Once cool, break in to individual graham crackers.
