I love me a cracker outta the box as much as the next gal, but I’m wary when I read the listed ingredients and can’t pronounce half of them. There are only seven — count ’em, seven — ingredients in these Cinnamon Honey Wheat Thins and I’m betting you’ve already got all of them in your kitchen.
Is it easier to go to the market and by a box of wheat thin crackers? Of course it is. But I guarantee that you’re not going to find a sweet version that are as naturally crunchy, tasty, and entirely pronounceable as these!
Cinnamon Honey Wheat Thins
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup whipped cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, salt, cinnamon, and butter. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, water, and vanilla and add it to the food processor. Pulse until a dough forms.
- Remove dough and split into four equal portions. Roll out each portion as thin as you can, about 1/16 inch.
- Cut dough into 1-inch squares and carefully move them to a Silpat-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until crackers are golden brown. Keep your eye on them as they can burn quickly!
- Move crackers to a cooling rack to cool and serve with Honey Cream Cheese Dip.
Honey Cream Cheese Dip:
- Place the ingredients in a bowl, stir to combine and serve with crackers.

Sadly these did not turn out good for me. Not much flavor. I didn’t make the cream cheese mixture so maybe that was the problem but I was just looking for crackers for my little ones.

Just took these out of the oven and my toddler has already eaten five (minus the spread). Looks like these will be on our snack food lineup. Very easy to make., but I had use more flour for rolling.

Mine didnt look anything like in the picture 🙂 But they still tasted ok, had to use a lot more flour, my first time making home made crackers
Freeze them after baking! They’re so thin that they will defrost on the counter quickly!
this was one of the recipes on the freeze well list… when do you freeze them?
You can begin trying honey around 12 months… of course consult your pediatrician first! I haven’t tested these with something other than honey, and I’m not sure how that would work since it’s such a small amount. You could substitute agave at a 1:1 ratio and come out with the same end product! You could also try using 1/4 cup sugar, and you will have to increase the water to help the dough form.
Hi can I substitute the honey in these with sugar or another sweetener. I want to make these for my little one as a snack, but because he is not of the honey eating age which is around two right? I would need to find another sweetener.

Just made these for my 3 yr old he loves them’
I haven’t tested it with a gluten-free flour, but I think it would work, especially if you already know how to use gluten-free flour!
Could you use a gluten free flour for these? Thanks
You my dear, are AMAZING! I fell in love with your blog right away!!! I linked your page from my blog because you have AMAZING recipes!! Im a newbie in this blog thing, and you are inspiring! Thank you!
Made these the other day and it was almost as if I didn’t. They disappeared! I made them for my extremely picky 3 year old who actually wouldn’t even try them but as I’m causally eating them in front of her commenting on how tastey mommy’s new crackers are I found out that, HEY, these reallly ARE freakin’ delicious! I tucked them away for the day and decided I’d try again the next morning and when I went to get them, they were gone! Sneaky husband of mine snaked them all! So I’ll be making them again soon…a double batch. I’m trying the chocolate zucchini bread tomorrow. I really need this chick eating more than chicken, yogurt, juice, and “fiber cookies”. Her father and I are such big foodies too, I don’t know where she got her finicky taste buds! Oh but she does drink soy milk smoothies with prune juice and pea puree AND will tell you “mmmmm DELICIOUS!” Gross….whatever.
Just made these gluten free using coconut flour. Pretty good!
