Cheese Crackers Gluten Free Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, chilled jasmine or brown rice (see note below)
  • 1.5 cups reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup parmesan, grated
  • 1/4 cup gruyere, shredded
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
Generous pinch black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter (plant-based or dairy)
  • 4 tbsp arrowroot, tapioca, or corn starch

How to Make Gluten-Free Cheese Crackers

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Put all ingredients into a food processor or high-powered blender and blend until mostly smooth and sticky like cookie dough. A few rice grains or cheese bits are perfectly acceptable.

Step 3

When the dough appears too wet you can either spread it out on a tray to let it dry or put it in the refrigerator for a short time. Additional arrowroot or some extra starch dusted on a floured surface will help if the dough feels too sticky or too wet.

Step 4

Wrap the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Use a smooth can or rolling pin to flatten it out to about 1/8 inch (nickel thickness).

Step 5

Remove the top parchment layer and use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into squares.

Step 6

Pro Tip: Sprinkle some toppings like flaky sea salt, sesame seeds or a dusting of chili powder on top before baking.

Step 7

Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes, flipping the pan halfway to ensure even browning.

Step 8

The crackers will harden when left to cool on the baking sheet so you can break them apart when done.

Step 9

The crackers will keep for 5–7 days when stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
