Gluten-Free Spicy Cheese Straws are clean-tasting Parmesan cheese straws made with coconut oil instead of butter. Delicious with just a hint of heat. A classic cocktail snack!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free All Purpose Baking Flour
- ⅓ cups Finely Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil, Melted
- ½ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
- ¼ teaspoons Salt
- 5 Tablespoons Hot Water
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine gluten-free baking flour, Parmesan cheese, coconut oil, cayenne pepper, salt, and hot water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Once dough comes together into a ball, turn it onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead a few times.
Shape dough into a rectangle and roll it out in between sheets of plastic wrap to a thickness of about ¼ inch or slightly less. (Err on the side of rolling the dough thinner rather than thicker.) You should end up with a rectangle measuring approximately 11 x 7½ inches.
Using a pizza wheel, cut strips of dough ½ inch wide and place them on the baking sheets. If a whimsical shape is desired, bend dough on the baking sheets by poking it gently with your finger in a couple of spots.
Bake 15 minutes, or until they start to brown around the edges.
