Gluten Free Cheese Straws
- Number of Servings: 40
Ingredients
16 oz cheddar cheese cracker barrel best2 cups almond flour1 tsp salt1 tsp baking powder1 tsp paprika1/8 tsp red pepper1/2 cup butter, melted
Grate cheese and bring to room temperature. Melt butter and allow it to cool to room temperature. Mix the flour and other dry ingredients together. Then add the butter and flour to the cheese. Mix together well – you’ll need to use your hands. Use a cookie press to shape the dough into strips on a flat cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees until firm, but not brown. Remove the straws from the cookie sheet once they’ve cooled a bit and break them into two or three inch pieces. Store the cheese straws in plastic zip-top bags.
A few thoughts: You have to watch these like a hawk! If they brown, then they taste burnt. These generally take more than 5 minutes to cook, but less than 10. However, given the variations in oven temperature, just keep your eye on them until you figure out how many minutes it takes your oven to cook them.
