Anything Close?

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.

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!

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
