What it is

Graham cracker crumbs are made from crushed graham crackers. Graham crackers are a type of sweet cracker made with graham flour, which is a type of whole wheat flour. They are typically sweetened with honey or molasses and flavored with cinnamon.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use graham cracker crumbs as a base for cheesecakes and pies, or as a topping for ice cream and yogurt. They add a sweet, slightly cinnamon flavor and a crunchy texture to foods. They are also used in s'mores and other dessert recipes.

Health notes

Graham cracker crumbs are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are primarily a source of carbohydrates and contain some fiber from the whole wheat flour. The U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have not established upper intake levels for graham cracker crumbs specifically, as they are considered a food ingredient rather than a nutrient supplement. JECFA and EFSA have not specifically evaluated graham cracker crumbs as a distinct entity.

Allergen info

Graham cracker crumbs are derived from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. They may also contain or be processed with other allergens like milk, eggs, soy, or tree nuts depending on the specific ingredients and manufacturing processes.
