Delicious gluten-free cucumber sandwiches that are perfect for summer picnics and elegant afternoon teas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf of fresh white or whole grain gluten-free bread
  • 1 large cucumber
  • 1 cup cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Butter, softened (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine cream cheese, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl until smooth.
  2. Slice the cucumber into thin, even rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Trim the crusts off the bread slices to create neat, beautiful shapes.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture generously onto one side of each slice of bread.
  5. Layer the cucumber slices evenly over half of the bread slices.
  6. Top the cucumber-covered slices with the other slice of bread, cream cheese side down.
  7. Press down gently to secure the sandwiches.
  8. Cut the sandwiches into quarters (triangles or fingers) for easy serving.
  9. Arrange the sandwiches on a serving platter, decorating with fresh dill if desired.

Notes

Best when served fresh, but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. Avoid freezing as it affects texture.
