Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (blended until smooth)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra crispiness)
Instructions
- Preheat & Prep – Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Blend the Cottage Cheese – In a blender or food processor, blend 1 cup of cottage cheese until completely smooth.
- Mix in Seasonings – Transfer to a bowl and stir in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Form the Chips – Spoon small dollops of the mixture onto the lined baking sheet, then spread into thin, even circles (about 2 inches in diameter).
- Add Parmesan (Optional) – Sprinkle grated Parmesan on top for extra crispiness and flavor.
- Bake to Perfection – Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the chips turn golden brown and crispy.
- Cool & Enjoy – Let the chips cool completely before removing them from the tray—they crisp up even more as they cool!
Notes
- For extra crispiness, make sure the chips are spread thin—thicker chips will be more chewy than crispy.
- Storage tip: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If they soften, re-crisp them in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5 minutes.
- Air Fryer Option: Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 10–15 minutes, checking frequently.
- Customize the flavors! Try adding cayenne for a spicy kick or Italian seasoning for an herby twist.
