Saltines Or Another Substitute?

I found a toffee recipe I want to make that involves putting a layer of saltines on a baking pan and covering it with toffee. Open Original Shared Link

I thought about using the salted pecan nut thins, but the square shape is pretty important to the candy, because the toffee would just stick to the baking pan otherwise.

Any ideas?

Ener-g makes a rectangular cracker--

In my opinion, the best tasting gluten-free crackers are Glutino, but those are round.

Glutino makes a Table Cracker that is just like Ener-G's rectangler crackers.

Also Dr Shar's has table crackers and snack crackers that are like Glutino and Ener-G's and they are available in the Gluten Free Mall.

Until recently I have used Glutino, and saw some Dr. Schar crackers and purchased them. They were excellent....the closest to Saltines that you will find in my opinion.

Thanks, all! Will try to track down the Dr Schar ones locally, but if I can't find them I think I'll use the Glutino ritz crackers and just break them in half, etc, to fill up the sheet.

I realize this is late in posting, but in case it might help at all for future use, I agree that Schar is the best. The table crackers are most like saltines but they also have some called "snack crackers" that would work, but they are a little different. If you can't find them locally, vitacost.com carries them.

I have found a recipe for "ritz" crackers, but IMHO it's the butter you add that makes it like Ritz. I think it would work, if you haven't found a cracker. I never though of using it for those bars...which I used to make pre gluten-free. Search it here...I think I saw it on this site.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
