Honey Graham CrackersServes

In food processor, combine flours, brown sugar, soda, salt and butter about 10 pulses. Add remaining ingredients, pulse 5 times, then process until the mix forms a mass, about 20 seconds. Remove the dough, press it into a ball and divide in half. Cover one half w plastic wrap. Preheat oven to 325. Roll out the other half on a buttered rimless 14x17" baking sheet. Lightly flour the surface of the dough and roll until it is very thin and covers the baking sheet. Use the sharp side of a knife to cut the dough into 3" squares, then use the dull side of the knife to divide the squares in half. Prick evenly w fork. Bake until evenly browned and firm to the touch, about 12-15 min. Repeat w the remaining dough on a second sheet. Follow the scored lines to cut the crackers apart while warm; they will crisp as they cool. Gently lift them from the baking sheet with a spatula. Store in air-tight containers.
