Needless to say I loved them enough to make them again today as yesterday's batch is long gone! This batch is even better! I did substitute gluten free flour, added another tbsp of cheese and mixed by hand. Love your website!!

You can always tweak the recipe to adjust to your taste and ingredients available. When you change the type of cheese, the baking time changes too. So you need to keep an eye for browning. Crackers with the flavour of burnt cheese is a total waste of effort. Glad to know the substitutions worked for you. The Silpat doesn't conduct heat, and therefore won't give the golden crust that placing the cracker on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper will. It's a small compromise for the wonders of Silpat. I got the zig zag edges by using a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GLJZ5E?ie=UTF8&tag=thepurfoo-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=1789&creativeASIN=B000GLJZ5E" rel="nofollow">pastry wheel</a>. Hope this helps! Shaheen Hi Bhavna,

Took your advice to roll on the silpat (have the lekue but it worked just as well). It took however 20-22 minutes to get nice and crisp. Questions: Wat do you place the silpat on? My oven rack is much smaller than the size of the baking mat :( Also, what did you use to give the zigzag edging to the crackers? Thanks for this recipe - makes for an awesome snack. Am now very keen to try an orange-cranberry or cinammon sugar version!!

Also will it be less flavourful if I add dried herbs and regular salt? Hi Shaheen – Do you think i can substitute parmesan cheese with regular grated cheddar cheese?

Yes, all purpose flour is maida. Parmesan cheese is available at most supermarkets. It’s not available here. Yes, all purpose flour is maida. Parmesan cheese is available at most supermarkets.
