Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup GF Flour Blend
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup GF aged Cheddar cheese grated
  • ¼ cup butter or margarine cold and cubed
  • 4 Tbsp milk or milk alternative

Instructions
 

  • In a food processor, pulse together flour, paprika and salt. Add cheese and butter, pulsing until uniformly crumbly.
  • With the machine running, slowly pour in the milk. Dough should stick together when pressed with fingers.
  • Pour mixture into a large Ziploc bag (less messy!) and shape into a flattened disk. Chill for 40 minutes.
  • Take about ¼ cup of dough and shape into a ball with hands, gently warming it a bit. Flatten and place between 2 pieces of parchment paper (this works better than wax paper or plastic wrap). Roll out to 1/8” thick, and cut into squares (1" or 2" square) with cookie cutter, or pizza cutter. Repeat with remaining dough*. Place onto a parchment lined baking sheet and using the sharp end of a bamboo skewer, prick a few holes into each. If desired, you can sprinkle with a bit of water and shake some salt on their tops.
  • Bake at 375°F on the middle rack, for 12-14 minutes (depending on the size of cracker you made and its thickness).
  • Cool completely then store in an airtight container

Notes

*Because gluten free dough's have a strong tendency to tear and crack when rolled out, dividing the dough up into smaller portions allows for better handling (and less frustration!).
