Cheesy Thin Crisps

by

Cheez-its were a childhood staple of mine and one of my all-time favorite snacks. As such, I set out to make an SCD version at home, and who knew it would be so easy! Not to mention they taste JUST like the original. No, seriously you have got to try them! I was blown away that those clean ingredients could replicate such an ultra-processed snack. While this version may not be bright fluorescent orange, what they lack in food colorings they more than make up for in taste. Crunchy, cheesy, and salty, these crisps offer the perfect trifecta of flavors for when your snack cravings hit. Satisfy your inner child with these fun and easy-to-make cheesy thin crisps today!
