Cheese Mixture
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- Seasonings: salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste
For Baking
- Olive oil (for lightly greasing the parchment paper, optional)
- Parchment paper (for lining the baking sheet)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and aid in crisping.
- Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, shredded cheese, and your choice of seasonings such as salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until evenly combined.
- Form Chips: Using a spoon, drop small, evenly spaced portions of the cheese mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure to space them apart to allow for spreading and crisping.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Bake until the chips turn golden brown and become crispy on the edges.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet. Cooling helps them firm up and become crunchier. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, make the cheese portions thinner and smaller.
- Try different shredded cheeses like parmesan or pepper jack for varied flavors.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
- These chips are low-carb and make a great keto-friendly snack.
