Anything Close?

[Queenofhearts799]

I am CRAVING cheese-its (its become a dirty word in my book). I was wondering if anyone has found a gluten free item that comes close? Or I am even game for a recipe. Something, to get rid of this craving. Thanks for all of the help in advance.

are you lactose intolerant that you can't eat cheese?

There's a recipe on here called Brazilian Cheese Bread, and to me it tasted just like a big Cheez-it, but softer. I'll bet if you rolled out the dough thinly and baked it, it would come pretty close to Cheez-its. If you do a search on this site, you should be able to find the recipe.

I can eat cheese it, just isnt quite the same. Thank you for the recipe.

Someone said the new Glutino Cheddar is close.

I made these "cheesy" crackers the other day, they tasted really good but they didn't crunch. We ate them in soup. Very tastey crackers. A toss between cheese nips and wheat thins according to my taste buds.

I used cornstarch, xanthan gum and shortening. When I wrote down the recipe I thought it said shortening but it says olive oil. I doubled the onion powder by mistake but it made them taste good anyway.

Next time try "double baking" them purple. Let them cool and then put in the oven on 350 for 5 - 10 minutes to make them crisp. This worked for a cracker recipe I tried once when they didnt get as crisp as I like.

I wondered if that would work. I will try it again, they were good crackers. Another recipe similar said to bake them about 15 minutes. I read it after we ate the crackers. I assumed I needed to bake them longer. Thanks to you I know it should work now I am glad b/c my younger dd will enjoy them!
