Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (small curd, full-fat for best crispiness)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)
- 1/4 tsp paprika (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Salt to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
-
Prepare the Cottage Cheese:
- Using a spoon or spatula, spread small dollops (about 1 tablespoon each) of cottage cheese onto the lined baking sheet.
- Flatten them slightly into thin, even circles, leaving space between each one.
-
Season the Chips:
- Lightly sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt over the cottage cheese.
-
Bake Until Crispy:
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chips turn golden brown and crispy.
- Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
-
Cool & Serve:
- Let the chips cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the parchment paper.
- Enjoy as a snack, with dips, or as a crunchy topping!
Notes
- For extra crispiness, use full-fat cottage cheese and drain excess liquid before baking.
- You can also air-fry them at 325°F (160°C) for 12-15 minutes for a quicker option.
- Add grated Parmesan or shredded cheese for more flavor.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
