Gluten-Free Butter Crackers
My husband just hasn't found a good cracker since going gluten free, and he loved his butter crackers. I adapted this recipe from several different ones I found online. Now, I have to keep my kids, who don't follow a gluten-free diet, from eating them so that Dad will have some for the next day! These are not light and flaky, but the taste is there. And now, my husband can welcome back peanut butter and crackers, cheese and crackers, or plain crackers for nomming on into his life. Also, you can likely add seasonings like garlic or sprinkle with Parmesan instead of salt to kick things up a notch.
