STORY: Thanks to Dr. Sylvester Graham, you can bake this crunchy cake from
crackers named after him. Graham, who lived in the early 1800’s insisted
that whole wheat flour was far more healthy then white flour. In those
days, it was. Whole wheat flour was made by grinding the whole grain of
wheat. For white flour, only the soft inside of the grain was used. The
outer layers, rich with vitamins and minerals, were left out. Today, white
flour is “enriched” with the need vitamins and minerals. But whole wheat is
still naturally healthy. So are the graham crackers, made from this flour.
Use them for this one-bowl cake. It’s all American.
