These Paleo Graham Crackers are easy to make, crunchy, mildly sweet, and so delicious! A gluten free, dairy free version that is equally as tasty!
Making homemade graham crackers may seem like something hard, but they’re not at all! If you can make cookies then you can make these. Rolling them out evenly may seem intimidating because it needs to be even, but I thought of a really great trick. I took the dough and placed it in the middle of a large piece of wax paper then pressed it into a rectangle 13×9 and it was so easy! Remove the wax paper from the pan and you have a perfectly even piece of dough that is ready to cut into squares. I didn’t need a rolling pin and it was super quick.
Graham crackers are one of the treats I grew up on. I could always count on finding some in the cupboard and I would spread frosting or cream cheese on them for a snack. Recreating them to be gluten free, dairy free, and naturally sweetened is such a nice treat! Now I like spreading some almond butter and jelly on them- so good! They are also perfect for making s’mores.
Just like traditional graham crackers, these are not overly sweet. The small amount of molasses in them gives an added depth of flavor and is not overpowering at all. It pairs perfectly with the cinnamon and has that classic flavor that is so delicious!
If you want a crunchy graham cracker then it is best to eat them the day they are made. Coming out of the oven they will be a little soft, but once they cool they will harden. They can be stored in an airtight container and will slightly soften after the first day- they will be more like a cookie than cracker. Still tasty though!
If you love graham crackers, but want a gluten free, dairy free version- then you will absolutely love this recipe!

We had a potluck with a house full of children and dogs. There are no crackers left. I got one bite. I thought it could stand to be sweeter. I asked my son if he liked them and he said he didn t even get any. Wow, I ve been looking everywhere for a good graham cracker recipe. This looks even better than some I ve seen with gluten products. Can t wait to try it soon! Yum!
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Andre! I’m so glad to hear they were enjoyed! Yes, they aren’t overly sweet. You could always try to increase the sweetness a little if you’d like. Thanks for the great feedback! Hopefully you get more than a bite next time 🙂

Have you tried them with honey instead of coconut sugar? Honey is the sweetener we can use. They sound so good!
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Kim- I have not, but I have this recipe that uses honey that you may enjoy: http://www.jaysbakingmecrazy.com/2016/08/28/paleo-nilla-wafers/
