We're still not sure about oats. But I'm sure sorghum would work in that

recipe. Thanks!

P.S. is sorghum flour kosher for passover? Anyone?

So we ended up making this matzoh recipe (sorry, I don't know where I picked

it up):

 

*SO GOOD Gluten-Free Matzo *

 

While this is not quite like regular matzo, it tastes great and gives a

gluten-free person the opportunity to participate in all parts of the

Passover Seder. Preparation takes about 20 minutes including baking time.

 

1 cup Potato Starch

2/3 cup Almond Meal

2 Tbs. flax seed meal

½ tsp. Gluten-Free Pantry Xanthan Gum

1/2-3/4 teaspoon salt

4 Tbs. vegetable shortening, Earth’s Balance vegetable spread or solid

coconut oil is the best

4-6 Tbs. warm water

 

Preheat oven to 450°F. Line two wire racks with with parchment paper or

coat them with coconut oil..

 

In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Mix shortening, vegetable

spread, or coconut oil into the dry ingredients using two forks or your

hands. Add water, a little bit at a time, until the dough forms a ball and

isn't too sticky. Knead well, making sure there are no big chunks of

shortening. If the dough is sticky, add additional potato starch.

 

Break off walnut size (smaller is even nicer if you can do it) pieces and

press into a disc with your fingers, and roll slowly and evenly until very

thin. Smooth out edges with your fingers and use a fork to prick rows of

holes if desired. Gently lay them on the prepared racks. Cook 7-9 minutes.

Watch carefully to make sure they don't over bake. Edges should become

slightly brown and the top should still be white. Makes 6-8 pieces

It turned out I didn't have enough potato starch, since I was doubling the

recipe, so I compensated with tapioca starch. As far as I can tell, tapioca

starch is still kosher for passover, since it is a root vegetable like

potato and not a grain (and I assume cassava was far more likely to be known

and used in Egypt than potatoes!)

 

 

Rather than rolling individual balls (and since we are sharing with a larger

group) we cut them out like cookies. They were yummy and it was all I could

do to limit the boys to two each so that we will have enough for our potluck

on Friday. Made about 40 crackers when doubled and cut in about a 3 "

circle.
