Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat works best) – For maximum crispiness.
- ½ teaspoon salt – Enhances the flavor.
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper – Adds a subtle spice.
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder – Optional, but adds great taste.
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika – For a smoky kick.
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese – (Optional) Adds extra crispiness and flavor.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Prepare the Cottage Cheese
- In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
- (Optional) Stir in grated Parmesan for extra crispiness.
Step 3: Form the Chips
- Using a spoon or cookie scoop, place small dollops of the cottage cheese mixture onto the lined baking sheet.
- Spread each dollop into a thin, even circle—about 2 inches wide.
Step 4: Bake Until Crispy
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
- Let the chips cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to crisp up further.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!
- Enjoy them as-is or pair with your favorite dips like guacamole, hummus, or salsa.
Notes
- Use Full-Fat Cottage Cheese: Higher fat content helps crisp up better.
- Spread Thinly: The thinner the layer, the crispier the chips.
- Let Them Cool: They crisp up more as they cool.
- Experiment with Flavors: Add herbs, chili flakes, or even ranch seasoning for variety!
