Need Goldfish Alternative

[maximoo]

Hi All: My DD loves Pepperidge Farm Goldfish & she is upset that she can't eat them anymore. Does anybody know of ay gluten-free alternatives that is similar?

check out Schar cheese bites. It's not quite the same but they're pretty good!

Goldfish Crackers

1 1/2 c. sharp cheddar cheese grated

3/4 c. gluten-free Bisquick or gluten-free flour (many brands)

1/4 t. onion powder

1/4 t. salt

cayenne pepper (optional)

onion salt (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350º

2. Mix all ingredients in a food processor for about 2 minutes until the dough forms a ball. I added a few shakes of cayenne pepper to give them a little kick. This is optional.

3. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8" thick.

4. Use mini cookie cutters about 1" in size.

5. Sprinkle a little garlic salt on top before baking (also optional.)

6.. Baked on an ungreased parchment lined cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes.

7. Store in an airtight container.

8. Makes about 100 little crackers.

I also saw a commerical mix on that allergen-friendly grocer in VA... argh... don't remember the name but I have the link if you want me to look it up. Haven't ordered or tasted it, so the authenticity may or may not hold up.

I have found this to be one of the hardest things to find. I've tried a few storebought kinds with little success. The Grainless Baker makes my favorite. They taste very cheese crackery to me...maybe more like Cheeze-Its than Goldfish but to me they are the best. The consistancy is a little different but I got used to it.
