Tarynn's Delicious "Hamburger buns"

So this recipe actually is my own! Give it a whirl and I promise you will not be dissatisfied! The term "hamburger buns" is in the quotations simply because I don't actually use this recipe for beef, only chicken and turkey! It is very sweet so bear that in mind its a lot like the "Hawaiian Bread" in sweetness level. I had leftover chicken from the past two nights dinners so I used that to make pulled barbecue chicken sandwiches. My husband had to come back for seconds :-)

Home Made Honey Grahams

Honey Grahams <3


1/4 Lb. (1/2 c.) Butter, softened
2 unbeaten eggs
1/2 c. honey
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. salt
2 1/4 c. whole wheat flour


Blend all but flour with wooden spoon, leaving butter in small pieces. Add flour in several portions. This should make a very soft dough. Let rest for 5 minutes. Pat the dough out as flat as possible on a buttered or greased cookie sheet. Cover with waxed paper or plastic wrap, finish smoothing out evenly to the edges of the pan with rolling pin. Remove paper, score into cracker-size squares (I just used a butter knife and did sections that way). Prick each cracker with fork 10-12 times. Sprinkle with sugar or cinnamon sugar for extra flavor. Bake for 15-20 minutes in a 350 degree oven.


This is a very old recipe! But delicious none the less!
