Question:
Is there a tasty "graham cracker" crust I can make for some plant based pie fillings?
— Louise Carruth
Answer:
I agree with you that vegan graham crackers, the ones I've tasted, haven't tasted very good and often they are loaded with sugar. And Louise, I can't give you the recipe because it is a proprietary recipe in essential vegan desserts, the coarse, but there is a recipe for homemade graham crackers. And I will tell you that graham flour is a rather coarse holy wheated flour in order not to have to go out and buy graham flour. I realized that by lightly toasting holy wheat pastry flour, I got a graham cracker type flower. So my graham crackers are 100% whole wheat.
