These Crispy Low-Carb Cottage Cheese Chips are a delicious and healthy snack option that combines the creamy taste of cottage cheese with the sharp flavor of Parmesan. Baked to golden perfection, these chips offer a crunchy texture without the carbs found in traditional chips. Perfect for dipping or enjoying on their own.

Ingredients

Cheese Mixture

  • 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
  • 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)

Others

  • Parchment paper for baking

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the low-fat cottage cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and optional garlic powder or herbs until evenly mixed.
  3. Shape Chips: Using a spoon, drop small dollops of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each dollop into thin circles to ensure they bake evenly and become crispy.
  4. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Keep a close eye as baking times can vary, and you want the chips to turn a golden brown color and achieve a crispy texture without burning.
  5. Cool: Once baked, allow the chips to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer them carefully to a wire rack to cool completely and maintain their crispiness.
  6. Serve: Serve the crispy cottage cheese chips plain or pair them with dips like guacamole, salsa, or your favorite low-carb dip for a tasty snack.

Notes

  • Make sure to flatten the cheese scoops well for even crispiness.
  • Watch closely during the last few minutes of baking to prevent burning.
  • These chips are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices for varied flavors.
  • Low-fat cottage cheese works best for a light texture; full-fat will yield a richer chip.
