Cottage Cheese Chips Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably full-fat or 2% for the best texture)
- 1 large egg white (helps with binding)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or other hard cheese for extra flavor)
- Salt, to taste
- Optional: a sprinkle of garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika for added flavor
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Mixture:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a blender or food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
- Add in the egg white, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and any optional seasonings. Blend until fully combined.
2. Shape the Chips:
- Spoon small portions of the mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread each spoonful into a thin, circular layer (around 2 inches in diameter) using the back of a spoon.
3. Bake the Chips:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are crispy.
- Watch closely near the end of the baking time to prevent over-browning.
4. Cool and Serve:
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chips cool completely. They’ll crisp up even more as they cool.
- Serve on their own or with a keto-friendly dip like guacamole, salsa, or ranch dressing.
