Ingredients

Scale

Cheese Mixture

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably low-fat)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (such as oregano or Italian seasoning)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For Baking

  • Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine the cottage cheese, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Form Chips: Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, place small mounds of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of the spoon for even cooking.
  4. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges of the chips turn golden brown and achieve a crispy texture.
  5. Cool: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the chips to cool for a few minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, which helps them crisp up further.
  6. Serve: Once cooled, serve the crispy cottage cheese chips as a tasty, healthy snack or appetizer. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use low-fat cottage cheese for a lighter version, or full-fat for a richer taste.
  • For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the mixture.
  • If you prefer thinner chips, flatten the mounds more before baking.
  • Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain crispness.
  • These chips are best eaten fresh for maximum crunchiness.
