Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or cheddar)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder or your favorite herbs (optional)
Main Ingredient
- 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
Additional
- Parchment paper for baking
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Mix ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and optional garlic powder or herbs. Stir well to integrate all ingredients evenly.
- Form chips: Spoon small amounts of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each spoonful into thin circles to create chip shapes and ensure even baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Keep a close eye to avoid burning and bake until the chips turn golden brown and crisp.
- Cool chips: Remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, which will help them crisp up further.
- Serve: Enjoy your crispy cottage cheese chips plain or paired with healthy dips such as guacamole or salsa for added flavor.
Notes
- Flatten the chips thinly and evenly to ensure they crisp up properly.
- Watch closely near the end of baking to prevent burning.
- These chips are best enjoyed fresh for maximum crispiness.
- You can experiment with different herbs and spices to vary the flavor.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and to keep the baking sheet clean.
