I picked up a box if Kinnickinnick S'moreables gluten and dairy free graham-style crackers and set about creating the ultimate gluten free 'more for my two year old.

The crackers are a rectangular shape rather than traditionally square, but they're the perfect size to break in half and create the perfectly sized S'more for little fingers.
We also had a box of regular graham crackers for comparison, and despite the gluten free crackers having a smoother consistency, the flavour was pretty close.
Add one campfire:
Some toasted marshmallows and pure, dairy free chocolate, and the S'more is born!
Our chocolate was a bit too thick to melt entirely, but I didn't hear any complaints!
Verdict: This product did the job it was supposed to do, had a pretty authentic flavour and didn't crumble under the pressure of being the anchor in a S'more. Everyone agreed that they make a great substitute for a traditional graham cracker. I have a few pie and cake recipes that call for a graham crust; I'm looking forward to trying them out using this product.
These crackers are great alone! And you don't have to crush them--Kinnikinnick makes graham cracker crumbs AND chocolate cookie crumbs to use in making pies and desserts.
ReplyDeleteThe crackers are good alone. I recently say the graham crumbs at my local grocery store, which is great. I haven't yet seen the chocolate cookie crumbs, but I'll keep an eye out for them!

this is my month for gluten free to see if it makes a difference for me. I'll be chatting. :) Thanks for the tips. - Patricia
