I tried making a Cheez-It today by using my flax/sesame cracker recipe.  I omitted the flax seed and added 2 TB of Anthony's cheddar powder.  I also swapped out the baking soda (used just to help the crackers brown) for baking powder.  Lastly, I had to add an additional TB of water to offset the cheddar powder.

The resulting crackers were bland (not very cheddar-y) and dry.

The cheddar powder is nice sprinkled on veggies, but it doesn't have the intensity for a baked good.  If any of you have used cheddar powder with success, I'd love to hear some ideas.

Is there a reason for not using cheddar cheese or is this looking for alternatives to using it?

@valkyrie I thought that I might get enough cheddar flavor from the powder and not create (potentially) the oiliness from cooking with "real" cheddar.

Are you adding any salt?  Also, how about including a sharper cheese like Asiago or Parmesan?
