Because the family is watching Oliver right now . . .
That's right, we made gluten free graham crackers. We followed this recipe*, but ours didn't turn out quite the same. I didn't get a dough ball; just a mixture the consistency of frosting. The first time I tried to roll it out. It didn't work. The "dough" was too thick, and we ended up with soft cookie bars that barely stayed together. But, they tasted good.
This time I "frosted" the whole pan instead of rolling it out. That seemed to work, we ended up with some nice graham crackers. Some where a little softer and some where a little more crisp (and cracked). All tasted good. So good that I had to rescue enough from snacking fingers in order to make the REAL treat.
Can you believe my children have NEVER had s'mores before?!? Alayna thought they were the BEST and wanted us to make them again tomorrow. That's a no-go. But we will have them again. and again . . .
* We will make a couple of changes if we use this recipe next time. First, we will replace 1/2 cup of the brown rice flour with almond flour. We did that this time and it was extra good. Then, to try and get a dough ball, we will only add 3 Tablespoons of the milk to start with. If we need more liquid we will just add a little more at a time. Otherwise I think we might try this recipe.
