Ingredients

2 cups (250g) whole-wheat flour
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp (3g) salt
1 tsp (6g) baking soda
1 tsp (3g) ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp (2g) ground cloves
1 cup (220g) unsalted butter , room temperature
1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
2 tbsp (30g) honey

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F (180C).
In a medium bowl combine flours, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves.
In another bowl, mix the butter with sugar and honey until fluffy.
With mixer speed to low incorporate the flour mixture and mix until combined. If necessary use your hands to form a dough. Divide the dough into 2 pieces.
Place one piece of dough onto a parchment paper. Cover with another parchment paper and start rolling the dough into a rectangle of about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick.
Remove the parchment paper on top and using a pastry cutter cut the edges to form a perfect rectangle and then cut into smaller rectangles (about ( 2 X 5 inches – 5 X 12 cm ). Prick crackers using a fork. Slide the parchment paper into a baking sheet. Refrigerate or freeze for 20 minutes to get firm before baking.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until dark golden brown. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer crackers to wire racks to cool completely.
Crackers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 3-5 days.
