Whisk the flour with baking powder and spices. I use a mix of dry mustard, cayenne, and paprika. The cayenne gives the cheese straws a little kick, but I wouldn’t call them spicy. Use plain paprika, not smoked, as it’s mainly there for color. Beat the butter and cheeses together until they’re combined. Add in the flour mixture.
The cheese and tomato flavour would be perfect blend. This low carb cheese straws recipe is quick and easy to make. You simply made the dough in a food processor, roll it out, cut into straws and bake. 15 minutes later you have a delicious savoury low carb snack.

For the cheese, cheddar is traditional. I love Kerrygold’s Dubliner which is a cheddar-like cheese with a bit of nuttiness. I also like to throw a little freshly grated Parmesan in the mix. Gruyere would be delicious as well. If you can grate it, it’ll probably work here. Butter is an important part of cheese straws.
