When I saw these healthy dark-chocolate marshmallows Raia made, I just knew they were begging for a homemade, grain-free graham crackers partner. Because… s’mores. Right? Yes. Of course I’m right.
These homemade, grain-free graham crackers might make the best (and healthiest) s’mores you’ve ever had.

Grain-free graham crackers for a healthy snack or treat!
Our new house has 2.5 glorious acres of land—which might not seem like a lot to some of you, but to a girl who’s always lived in the city on a postage stamp sized lot, it sure seems like a lot! It came ready-to-go with a nice big fire-pit.
And of course, our kids want s’mores. But mama cringes a little at feeding her boys those processed sugar puffs. And what about graham crackers? Well sure, you can find gluten-free options now. They’re not any better than their gluten-filled counterparts: too many sugar-spiking carbs and filled with nutrient-poor ingredients.
This recipe, on the other hand, is filled with nutrient-dense whole foods. And there is even a sugar-free option if you want to cut down on sugar.
My boys gave this graham cracker recipe 2 thumbs up—that would be 8 thumbs total! I hope your kiddos enjoy the recipe as much as mine have. I’ll be whipping up a lot more batches as we move into the fall and get more use out of that new fire pit!

Are these any good if you leave out the cinnamon?
Trisha Gilkerson
I’ve not tried them without cinnamon. My guess is they might be a little bland. I’d probably try another spice or some extra vanilla.

These look so easy! I can’t wait to try them! I always wish I could have graham crackers around for ice cream indulgence! Do you think they could be frozen and still thaw and be crispy?

I just have to say, I made these this morning and my teen who says he hates coconut, loved them! He had no clue they had any coconut in them! Could i substitute coconut oil for some of the butter??I’ll be making these again!!!

Hi Anna,
If you used a different kind of sweetener, it would definitely change the consistency.
Kim Folven
I just got done making these and they are delicious! I baked them quite a bit longer removing crispy ones every couple of minutes. Thank you for sharing such a yummy alternative to regular graham crackers:)

Would brown sugar Swerve work in this recipe? Truvia upsets my stomach.

Yes, you can absolutely switch sweeteners to whatever you like to use. 🙂
