Chebe Gluten Free Recipes



A G Fishy Crackers

Yield: About 8 – 10 oz. crackers
Make it fun! Get a cookie cutter in the shape of a little fish (or any other fun shape). When Chebe dough is baked very thin and crisp, they have the texture of a cracker. They will keep for a week or so in an airtight container. These are great for travel, snacks, and school lunches.

Ingredients:- 1 package Chebe mix (7.5 oz or 1 ¾ C)
- 2 eggs
- Oil
- Sharp cheddar cheese
- Water, milk, or milk substitute

Directions: Preheat oven to 375° F
1. Prepare one package (7.5 oz. or 1 ¾ Cups) of mix according to the package instructions.
2. Divide dough into 4 parts and with a rolling pin flatten each to about 1/16” (very thin) between two sheets of waxed paper.
3. Carefully remove the top layer of paper and place the dough on a lightly greased baking pan. Then remove the second layer of paper. Repeat with the other dough pieces.
4. With a cookie cutter make your shapes, removing the excess dough (which can be used again).
5. Bake for 12 - 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Notes: 
a. You may choose to salt the tops or sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
b. Keep an eye on these during the last minutes in the oven as they are very thin and can burn quickly.

Brown Sugar Almond Sticky Buns

Yield: About 9 buns
Thanks to Amy and Gaye McGovern

Ingredients:- 1 package Chebe mix (7.5 oz or 1 ¾ C)
- Margarine or butter
- ½ Cup sugar (if using Chebe All-Purpose or Original Mixes)
- ½ Cup Brown sugar
- ½ Cup Almonds, sliced or slivered
- 2 eggs
- Oil
- Water, milk, or milk substitute

Directions: Preheat oven to 400° F
1. Grease a 9x9 square (or 9 inch round) baking pan using margarine or butter. Sprinkle 1/4 Cup brown sugar on the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle 1/4 Cup almonds on the bottom of the pan (spread them out evenly as this is part of the topping).
2. Prepare one package (7.5 oz. or 1 ¾ Cups) of mix according to the package instructions (if using All-Purpose or Original Mixes, substitute cheese with ½ Cup sugar).
3. Roll out the dough into 1/4 inch thick rectangle. Spread with margarine (or butter).
4. Spread 1/4C to 1/3C brown sugar on the margarine. Spread 1/4C almonds on top of the brown sugar. Roll the dough up and slice in 1/2 inch sections. Place them in the baking pan touching each other.
5. Bake for 15-18 minutes (note that the tops may not turn dark brown). Immediately after removing the rolls from the oven, turn the pan upside down onto a plate. This will give you the rolls with the topping side up.

 
 
 

A F G O Grilled Pizza 

Yield: 2-10” pizzas

Enjoy a gluten-free pizza during the summer and keep your house cool! Try grilling a Chebe Pizza Crust. There's no need to turn on your oven, it's fast, and it's fantastic!

 
Ingredients:- 1 package Chebe mix (7.5 oz or 1 ¾ C)
- 2 eggs
- Oil
- Shredded cheese
- Water, milk, or milk substitute
- Pizza toppings (your choice)

Directions: If using a gas grill, set at medium
1. Prepare toppings and set aside.
2. Prepare one package (7.5 oz. or 1 ¾ Cups) of mix according to the package instructions. Split dough into two equal parts and roll out to 1/8” thickness, about 10” in diameter.
3. Grill crust uncovered on medium-high heat until golden brown (about 2 ½ minutes)
4. Flip crust, add desired toppings and cook covered for an additional two minutes. Check to see that the bottom of the crust is browned and the cheese is melted.

Note: Cooking times will vary with the temperature of the grill. We tested this recipe on both a charcoal grill and a gas grill. The temperature on the charcoal grill was hotter and the crust was ready to flip in about 1 minute. The gas grill allowed for easier temperature setting. If the temperature is too hot, the crust will cook before the toppings are heated and the cheese is melted.

RECIPE BACKSTORY

Burgers are a popular choice to prepare and serve on Labor Day... and ours was no exception! We had a few friends and their children over to enjoy the day but rather than serving up the usual burgers, I wanted to do something a little different. Why not do sliders instead?! I love variety and creating menus that highlight that. By doing a few kinds of sliders, both kids and adults had a chance to enjoy different flavors and who doesn't like things in mini size? These Buffalo Chicken Sliders are one of the kinds I prepared and I especially liked them. It's all the flavor of buffalo chicken wings sandwiched inside a mini bun... For my slider menu, we had cheddar & bacon sliders, Italian sausage with onions & peppers sliders, vegetarian black bean sliders and these buffalo chicken sliders. They were presented in a tiered stand which was commonly used to serve cupcakes and made quite a presentation at the table! Served with slider toppings on the side and with other salads, the slider menu was a hit and a meal both kids and adults enjoyed. For these chicken sliders, it's important that you allow the meat mixture to chill so that they hold their shape when cooked. I adapted a recipe from Rachel Ray where all the flavors and common ingredients are combined with the ground chicken. For ground chicken, I used slightly frozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts which I pulsed down in a food processor to a medium grind consistency. You can also use ground turkey if you wanted as well.
