Are these cucumber boats gluten-free?

Yes, all of the ingredients in this recipe are gluten-free.

Do I need to use a specific type of cucumber for this recipe?

No, you do not need a certain kind of cucumber for this cucumber boat recipe. I've made it with regular cucumbers as well as English ones, and both are delicious. Choose whatever size and sort you like the best.

No. Because cucumbers are high in nutrients, you may leave the skin on if you like it! I usually just remove it based on my personal taste preferences.

Yes, but probably not more than 1 day ahead of time. If you want to make your cucumber boats in advance, I recommend eating them within 24 hours.

Recipe Notes:

Homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning: I purchase my salt-free seasoning from Amazon. If you don’t want to do this, Everything Bagel Seasoning that includes salt as an ingredient can be substituted at a 1:1 ratio, but the prepared cucumber boats may be a little too salty if you do this. Try this homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning recipe if you don’t want to purchase pre-made seasoning.
