Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its with Garlic Aioli

To make homemade Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its, start by pulsing 8 oz of shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup of flour, and 2 tsp of garlic powder in a food processor. Then, add 1 null of butter and 2 tbsp of water, pulsing until a dough forms. Roll out the dough, cut it into squares, poke holes in them, and bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes. Toss with garlic butter and Parmesan before serving.

Yes, you can make Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its gluten-free by substituting the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure that the blend you choose is suitable for baking to achieve the right texture and crunch.

To store your homemade Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its, let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, consider freezing them in a freezer-safe bag for up to three months. Just make sure to re-crisp them in the oven before serving.

If you're looking for a substitute for mayonnaise in the garlic aioli, you can use Greek yogurt for a healthier option or sour cream for a creamier texture. Both alternatives will still provide a delicious flavor to complement your Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its.

Garlic Parmesan Cheez-Its pair wonderfully with a variety of dips and snacks. You can serve them alongside fresh vegetables, olives, or even a charcuterie board. The garlic aioli also makes a great dip for crispy vegetables or as a spread on sandwiches.
