Gluten-Free Graham Crackers

Though I’m not entirely sure I have Celiac, and I’m not well-read on all the pros or cons of wheat gluten, I do know that I thoroughly enjoyed these tasty little graham crackers. My sister has been diagnosed with Celiac for some time now, and I’ve been showing symptoms of it as well. While my symptoms aren’t exactly clearing up yet with my new gluten-free diet, I do feel more energetic in general.

The only complaint in the house was that these graham crackers were a bit dry. This I’m pretty sure  is due to my being lazy and using a packaged all purpose g-f flour, and not tracking down the xantham gum and guar gum to help hold the grahams together. This can also be easily fixed by turning them into s’mores!

Did I mention, cats like them as well?

I followed this recipe from Gluten-Free Girl:
My only adjustment was to leave out 1/3 of the honey and substitute two tablespoons of brown sugar.
I used Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour.

Last week I received my print from Erin Jane Nelson’s Print Sale. It looks absolutely stunning!

I’d seen Erin’s name around here and there, and had followed her work on Flickr for some time. When I saw her camera was down and she was selling prints to replace it, I was happy to help out. Erin not only makes some great photos, but is just a genuinely nice person.

You can view more work on her site.
