The dough is typically rolled thin and cut into rectangular shapes before baking. They are a popular snack item and a common ingredient in various desserts.
How people cook with it
These crackers are versatile in the kitchen, serving as a base for desserts or enjoyed on their own.
- Crushed for pie crusts
- Snacked plain
- Layered in parfaits
- Used in dessert bars
To create a pie crust, crush the crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs with melted butter and press into a pie plate. For other uses, they can be broken into pieces and layered with yogurt or pudding, or incorporated into no-bake dessert bars. They also make a simple snack when eaten directly from the box.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular graham crackers, these have a reduced fat content. This may result in a slightly less rich flavor profile and a texture that can be a bit drier. The sweetness from the honey remains a prominent characteristic.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any remaining crackers in an airtight container or the original packaging, sealed tightly. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent them from becoming stale or soft.
