They have a very different flavour and texture though so it’s not really the same thing (however they will do in recipes like the cheesecake base mentioned). Well, it looks like Tescos will provide you with the complete kit: Graham Crackers, marshmallows, and Hershey bars! You can expect to pay a lot more for them here than in the UK, but sometimes that extra expense is worth it for the nostalgia–or simply because there’s nothing that compares to a Hobnob with your cup of tea. He concurred with me about Digestives–the taste is reasonably close, but the texture is quite different.

Graham cracker crumbs are used to create graham cracker crusts for fruit pies and moon pies, and as a base, layer or topping for cheesecake. From the number of hits this page gets, it seems I’m the only person addressing this topic, so I’m glad this was helpful to you, Vicky!

So it was, one afternoon while they were here, I took a Graham Cracker and gave it to my older brother to try. It’s true, people usually think of France or Italy as places to go for food, but the UK has some very distinct (and tasty) food offerings, too. You might think they are a bit thick so another alternative could be digestive thins or malted milk biscuits. I believe she was trying to make something based on a US recipe, and since Graham Crackers are not common fair in the British Isles, she needed an appropriate substitute.I mean, could I have been missing out on an amazing graham cracker crust for pies and cheesecakes all these years? These crackers never, ever have a shelf life of more than a 2-3 months by the time they arrive in the UK by sea. With regard to the consistency, he thought perhaps more the consistency of a Rich Tea biscuit, or even a Garibaldi, minus the raisins. If the Belvita breakfast biscuits are the same in the UK as the ones we have here in the US, then the texture is close, but a little crispier than a Graham Cracker. It will now become a standard conversation point with every visitor to the US from the UK I meet… including my Mum when she next visits.

We will bake the dough as one big sheet so that the crackers stay in a neat shape, then break them up once they're baked! Freshly baked in our North West London bakery, Panzer’s popular mini bagel boxes are the easiest and most elegant way to feed a crowd. The upshot of all this, I think, is that there are a number of biscuit options you can use in the UK to substitute GCs when making a crust. I think the problem is coming up with something that has both the consistency of a Graham Cracker as well as the taste.

This is also why I leave the uneven edges in place as the cracker bakes (plus it provides a buffer for if any of the dough around the edges darkens too much).
