Crispy Cottage Cheese Chips are a delicious and healthy snack that combines the creamy richness of cottage cheese with savory seasonings and a satisfying crunch. Baked to golden perfection with optional Parmesan and herbs, these chips are low-carb, protein-packed, and perfect for guilt-free snacking or entertaining.

Ingredients

Dairy

  • 2 cups cottage cheese (full fat or low fat)

Seasonings

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Optional Add-Ins

  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (oregano, thyme, or rosemary)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Drain the Cottage Cheese: Place the cottage cheese in a fine mesh sieve or wrap it in cheesecloth and press gently to remove excess moisture. Removing extra liquid helps the chips crisp up better during baking.
  3. Blend the Mixture: Transfer the drained cottage cheese to a food processor. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. If using, add grated Parmesan cheese and dried herbs such as oregano, thyme, or rosemary. Blend the mixture until it is mostly smooth but still retains a bit of texture for a pleasant bite.
  4. Shape the Chips: Using a spoon, scoop heaping teaspoons of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Flatten each dollop into a thin round chip roughly 2 inches in diameter for even baking and crispiness.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges of the chips are golden brown and the chips are crisp.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the chips to cool completely on the sheet. They will crisp further as they cool. Serve immediately as a snack or store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.

Notes

  • Be sure to drain the cottage cheese well to ensure crispiness.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize flavor.
  • Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
  • These chips are best eaten within 2-3 days for optimal texture.
  • Use parchment or silicone mats to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
