Last year, Daiya launched their first Feta cheese alternative in blocks. This summer, they’re rolling out a crumbled version, and it’s joined by another highly anticipated flavor. Daiya Cheeze Crumbles are now available in both Feta and “Goat Cheese” varieties, and are ready to sprinkle on salad, pizza, pasta, and bowls.
Daiya Cheeze Crumbles are New Feta & Goat Cheese Alternatives
Like many of their newer cheese alternative formulas, Daiya Cheeze Crumbles are made with an oatmilk base. But unlike the others, these are free of legumes! According to the company, the oat and coconut oil base provide a rich and creamy texture. Since these are softer types of cheese alternatives, chickpea and pea proteins are apparently not required.
