Need A Good Cracker Recipe!

Hi! My son (age 3) was diagnosed with autism, and I've been trying to educate myself about gluten and casein-free foods.

A problem I have is that my son LOVES his crackers, but the ones in the stores are so expensive. Can you recommend a good cracker recipe I can make at home? He likes the cheesy crackers, graham crackers and Ritz to give you an idea of his tatesbuds.

I appreciate any help... This is pretty overwhelming to take in and completely adjust our food lifestyle :(

Thanks!

Heather

Just wanted to welcome you to the board!

I don't have a good cracker recipe....but I'm sure someone on here will chime in. Also, try a search on the forum...you never know what you will find!

I think Miss Roben's has some pre-made mixes to bake your own crackers. You might try some of hers.

Good luck, and we are happy to have you on the board. Let us know what we can do to help....we know it can --- and is --- overwhelming!

Welcome to the board.

Bette Hagman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread has recipes for Rice-itz (fake Ritz), Mock Hi-Ho Crackers (I don't know what those are), Sesame Wafers, Cheese Nips, and Graham Crackers (pgs 252-258). The graham crackers were pretty good...but use less cinnamon. She wants you to use too much.

At the end of the cookbook is a list of her other cookbooks with cracker recipes.

from the GFG Cooks Fast & Healthy

Cheese crackers (rice) pg. 203

Onion crackers (bean & rice) pg. 202

Rice-free Graham crackers (bean) pg. 99

from More from the GFG

Cheese crisps (rice) pg. 188

Corn chips (rice) pg. 186

Italian cheese straws (rice) pg. 187

Mock Graham crackers (rice) pg. 87

Pecan wafers (rice) pg. 185

Sesame thins (rice) pg. 184

from The GFG: Living Well Without Wheat

Cheese sticks (rice) pg. 121

Here's a link to a few recipes for gluten-free crackers, including Mock Goldfish crackers.

Disclaimer: of all these recipes, I have only made the GFG Bakes Bread Graham crackers. I can't tell you how any of the others taste. The GFG Graham crackers were okay, but I felt she asked for too much cinnamon.

I guess you'll have to take a trip to the library. Let us know how they turn out.

Here's a link to the recipe I use. It's modified from the Top Secret Recipe site, using Pamela's Baking and Pancake mix as the flour substitute.

Stay away from the cheese cracker recipes. My daughter has autism, too. That's the only reason I'm baking gluten-free (we don't have Celiac). Your son's food must also be CASEIN-free (dairy-free). No cheese, milk, ice cream, etc.

Starting this diet IS overwhelming, but the folks on this board have been very helpful.

Oh, GEEEZZZ! I didn't read the whole post, cheese crackers jumped out at me! You already know about casein! Sorry, just trying to help. :rolleyes:

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated. So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly. I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm...

      @trents thank you! I have only been taking 20mg 1x a day. Maybe I need to increase it.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
