Brown Butter Maple Cornbread Cheez-Its

To make Brown Butter Maple Cornbread Cheez-Its from scratch, start by blitzing together the dry ingredients and cheese. Then, add the wet ingredients and pulse until a dough forms. Incorporate canned corn by pulsing gently. Roll out the dough, cut into squares, poke holes, and bake at 375°F for 15-20 minutes until crunchy. Finally, drizzle with a mixture of browned butter and maple syrup for added flavor.

Unfortunately, traditional Brown Butter Maple Cornbread Cheez-Its are not gluten-free due to the use of flour. However, you can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend to make them suitable for a gluten-free diet. Just ensure that the other ingredients you use are also gluten-free.

If you don't have brown butter on hand, you can substitute it with regular melted butter. While it won't have the same nutty flavor, you can enhance the taste by adding a pinch of salt or a splash of extra maple syrup to mimic the richness of brown butter.

To store leftover Brown Butter Maple Cornbread Cheez-Its, let them cool completely before placing 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 or container, where they can last for up to three months.

Brown Butter Maple Cornbread Cheez-Its pair wonderfully with a variety of dips and spreads. Consider serving them with a creamy cheese dip, spicy salsa, or even a sweet maple glaze for a delightful contrast. They also make a great snack alongside soups or salads, adding a crunchy texture to your meal.
