Description

Low-Fat Honey Graham Crackers are a type of whole grain cookie made primarily with whole wheat flour, natural honey, and a reduced-fat formulation. These crackers are characterized by their crunchy texture and a slightly sweet flavor, provided by the honey, which makes them ideal for healthy recipes and homemade desserts.

Originating in the United States, Graham crackers owe their name to the preacher and naturopath Sylvester Graham, who promoted their consumption as a nutritious food with high fiber content. Currently, Graham crackers are commonly used as a base in recipes such as cheesecakes, pies, and desserts that require a crunchy and healthy base.

Properties: these crackers are a healthier option compared to traditional cookies, as they contain less fat, provide dietary fiber due to their whole wheat flour, and offer a natural sweet taste thanks to the honey, without the need to add processed sugars. Furthermore, their low-fat content makes them a suitable ingredient for low-fat diets or for those looking to control calorie intake without sacrificing flavor.

Synonyms in Hispanic America: in different countries they may be called whole wheat honey cookies, whole wheat crackers with honey, or simply low-fat whole grain crackers. However, the term "Graham crackers" is generally recognized in the culinary field when referring to this specific type of cracker.
