MARY'S GONE CRACKERS COPYCAT GLUTEN-FREE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 365°F I know it's an odd temp, but it worked for me.
• Prepare rice and quinoa (separately obviously).
• Add the rice to a food processor and blend with the soysauce (add by teaspoons) till it no longer looks like individual grains.
• Add the quinoa and give it a few whirls. It should form a sticky ball in the processor. (The original recipe suggested taking out the dough ball now and adding the sesame seeds, flaxseeds, and optional add-ins by hand, but I just threw everything into the ol' processor.)
• The dough is QUITE sticky, so I used a teaspoon size cookie dough scoop to scoop the dough onto an oiled cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. (Do not use parchment paper or wax paper, your crackers will stick to it like white on rice!) Then I sprayed a little oil on one side of a quart sized freezer bag and pressed each cracker out individually. You want them to end up VERY thin, like paper practically, and at least as thin in the middle as at the sides. I accomplished this by pressing them out with a circular motion (it helps to have oily fingers so you don't get stuck to the bag). If your crackers start to stick to the bag, just spray a little more oil on it.
• Sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
• Bake at 365F for about 20 minutes. They should be a lovely tan color, especially if you add parmesan cheese.

MOCK MATZO / GLUTEN-FREE NON-GEBROKTS MATZAH CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F
• Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Mix shortening or coconut oil into the dry ingredients using your hands. Add water just a little bit at a time until the dough makes a ball and isn't too sticky. Knead well, making sure there are no big chunks of shortening. If the dough is sticky, add additional potato starch.
• Take walnut size pieces and press with your fingers onto the foil-covered baking sheet until flat and thin. Smooth out edges, if desired, and use a fork to prick rows of holes.
• Cook for 10 minutes, watching carefully to make sure they don't get overdone. You should underbake them slightly, rather than overbaking. Remove from oven as soon as the edges become slightly brown - The top should still be white.

FLAX QUINOA CRACKERS (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Soak flax seeds in water for 15 minutes.
• Grind up some quinoa into flour consistency (I use my mini-blender, but a clean coffee grinder would work too).
• Mix ground quinoa with soaked flax seeds (do not strain)
• Add olive oil, sea salt, and baking powder.
• Grease a 9x11 cookie sheet then spread the mixture out. Spread it so it fills the entire sheet.
• Bake at 375 degrees until it starts to brown on the edges (probably about 15 minutes), flip and bake a few more minutes.
• For a raw version you can omit baking powder, dehydrate, score, and flip.

GLUTEN-FREE CHIPOTLE CHEESE CRACKERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400?. Line baking pan with parchment paper.

• Bake 15 minutes or until edges are beginning to brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cool on wire rack.

GLUTEN-FREE ALMOND CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour and salt. Add in egg (or flaxseed mixture 1 TBS flaxseed meal plus 3 TBS hot water -- let it set for about 3 mins) and oil.
• Blend and shape into two balls. Place each ball on a cookie sheet (lined with parchement) and roll into a thin layer (the thinner the more crunchy the cracker).
• Score into squares with a knife or pizza cutter.
• Sprinkle with sea salt (I also sprinkled pumpkin seeds on top).
• Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cool then cut/break apart.

GLUTEN-FREE RICE AND MILLET FLOUR CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment. Combine the flours, salt and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse a few times to combine. Add the butter, and pulse until the flour mixture is crumbly. Combine the water, eggs and olive oil in a measuring cup. Turn on the processor. Add the liquids with the machine running, and process until the dough comes together. The dough will be soft. If it seems wet, add another tablespoon or two of rice flour.
• Remove from the food processor. Divide into two portions, and roll out each portion into thin sheets. Sprinkle on the seeds. Using the rolling pin, gently press the topping into the surface of the dough. Cut the dough into squares or rectangles, and transfer to the baking sheets.
• Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp.

KIDS CAN MAKE: HEALTHY, GLUTEN-FREE CHEESY CRACKERS

Steps:

• Whisk together the egg white, vinegar and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl; set aside. Refrigerate the egg yolk in a small bowl, covered, until ready to use.
• Pulse the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, mustard, paprika and turmeric in a food processor to combine. Add the butter, Cheddar and Parmesan, and pulse until the butter is completely broken up. Pour in the egg white mixture, and pulse until the dough comes together in a ball. (It's OK if it's a little wet.)
• Transfer the dough to a large piece of plastic wrap, and pat it into a 1/2-inch-thick round. Wrap it up, and refrigerate to chill and firm up the dough, about 1 hour.
• Position 2 oven racks at the top and bottom third of the oven, and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Roll the dough out on a large piece of parchment (to keep it from sticking to the counter) to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut shapes out with a 1 1/2-inch cookie cutter, and transfer the cutouts to the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1/2 inch apart. Gather and reroll the scraps and cut out more crackers; repeat with any remaining scraps. (Dust the dough with flour if you find it too sticky.)
• Whisk 2 teaspoons water into the egg yolk. Brush the tops of each cracker with the mixture. Sprinkle each with some sesame seeds, poppy seeds and the tiniest pinch of salt.
• Bake 2 baking sheets of crackers at a time, until the crackers are deep golden brown on the bottom, about 20 minutes, rotating the sheets about halfway through. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Bake the remaining cutouts.
• Store the crackers at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze them for up to 1 week.

GLUTEN AND DAIRY-FREE GRAHAM CRACKERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt.
• Cut in the shortening pieces until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Stir in remaining ingredients. The dough will be crumbly, but you should be able to form it into a ball.
• Wrap the ball of dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Remove the dough, unwrap, and divide in half.
• Place half of the dough into a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Roll out to the shape of the bag, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Have patience as the dough has a tendency to crumble.
• When dough is rolled out evenly, cut along sides of plastic bag and remove top.
• Carefully flip sheet of dough over onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to cut into squares. Prick each square with a fork.
• Repeat steps with remaining half of dough.
• Bake at 350 degrees F. for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly browned. When completely cooled, they should be crisp and crunchy, like a regular graham cracker.

GLUTEN FREE CHICKPEA CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Mix all dry ingredients together well. Stir in the oil and begin stirring in water a little at a time. The dough will need to be formed into a ball, if it is too dry add a little more water, if too wet, more flour.
• Divide the dough in half and roll each half into a ball.
• Use a Silpat or cut a generous amount of plastic wrap and dust it with a gluten-free flour. Flatten one ball into a rectangle, place it on the Silpat or plastic wrap and sprinkle with some more flour. Place another large piece of plastic wrap on the dough and using a rolling pin, roll the dough out as thinly as possible. It might be necessary to peel off the top layer of plastic and re-dust a few times.
• Peel off the top layer of plastic, dust with a little more flour, place a baking sheet over it, slide another baking sheet under the bottom plastic wrap, flip over, remove the other sheet of plastic wrap and bake.
• A nice touch, although not necessary, is to glaze the crackers before baking with an egg white or cornstarch glaze.
• Mine were a little less than an eighth of an inch, but less is literally more! Crackers, that is.
• Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned and crispy. They will crisp up more after they cool off. After cooled, store in an airtight container.

CRISPY GLUTEN-FREE GRAHAM CRACKERS (VEGAN) | MINIMALIST BAKER RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F (176 C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, maple syrup, molasses, and melted coconut oil until well combined and smooth.
• Add in the oat flour, arrowroot starch, and ground flax seeds and mix with a wooden spoon until the flour is completely incorporated. Your dough should not feel too tacky (sticking to your hands) or too dry (crumbly), but should hold its form. If the dough appears too dry, it likely just needs more mixing. If it feels sticky, it needs more oat flour.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper on a large cutting board or countertop. Place dough in the center and then place another sheet of parchment paper on top of the dough. Working from the center out, roll the dough into a large rectangle (~10 x 12 inches) about 1/16-inch thick. Rolling to this thickness makes these crackers crispy (our preferred texture) rather than soft. If you have any difficulty rolling the dough, place it in the fridge to chill for 10-20 minutes and then try again.
• Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into 2-inch x 3-inch rectangles (keep in mind they will expand slightly during baking). Then use a metal spatula lightly floured with oat flour to transfer to a baking sheet. If you have a hard time transferring or handling, pop in the refrigerator to chill for 5-10 minutes. Space crackers ~1 inch apart to allow for spreading.
• Continue rolling out and cutting remaining dough until you have used it all up. Prick each graham cracker twice with a fork. Recipe as written makes ~15 crackers (will vary based on how thinly they are rolled and whether modifying batch size).
• Bake for 10-14 minutes or until slightly firm and darker in color. Watch closely near the end to avoid burning.
• Let cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet, then gently transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy plain, make s'mores, or try our graham cracker crust!
• Once completely cooled, crackers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days at room temperature, 7-10 days in the fridge, or 1-2 months in the freezer. Dough can also be frozen for up to 1 month and rolled/baked after defrosting in the fridge overnight.

SAVORY CRACKERS (GLUTEN/CASEIN FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F and grease cookie sheet, use parchment, or use a silicone baking mat (that is what I used).
• Mix together flours, gum, soda, salt, seasonings.
• Mix together oil, honey, and stir into flour mix. Add sesame seeds, then milk and vinegar. Start with the 2 tablespoons of milk, and see if you need that splash more.
• Roll out thinly, then use a cookie cutter to make into crackers (I used a small circle, about the size of Ritz).
• Bake for about 12 minutes (they start to brown nicely, then flip and bake for about 4-8 more. Depends how thick you made 'em!
• *Note: there are some I've stored in the freezer, and we haven't re-tried them yet, but I'll update when we do!

AMANDA'S GLUTEN FREE (VEGAN) CRACKERS

Steps:

• 1.Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment. In a high-speed blender or processor, grind almonds into a flour. Do not over process or almonds will release oils. Sift flour before using to remove larger pieces. OR you can use store-bought almond flour.
• 2. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix well with spoon. Knead dough with hands until it comes together. Shape into a ball.
• 3. Place ball of dough on parchment paper or a non-stick mat. Roll out dough until it's about 1/8 inch thick, or as thin as you can get it without ripping. With a pastry wheel or pizza slicer, slice into crackers.
• 4. Bake at 350F for 18-20 minutes until slightly golden in colour. 18 minutes is a softer cracker vs 20 minutes crispier.
• 5. Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes Store in air-tight container once fully cool.
• *Note: Other flours might work in substitution for brown rice flour and almond flour, although keep in mind the flavour will change.
• *Note: tweak the spices to your liking!
