Main Ingredients
- 1 cup (256g) whole milk small curd cottage cheese (4% milkfat, high protein)
Optional Ingredients
- Seasonings of your choice (e.g., garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper)
- Parmesan cheese for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking the chips evenly.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the whole milk cottage cheese with your chosen seasonings to add flavor to the chips.
- Spread Mixture: Spread the seasoned cottage cheese evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and encourage even cooking.
- Optional Topping: If desired, sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the top to add a cheesy crust and extra flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chips turn golden brown and achieve a crispy texture.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chips cool completely before breaking them into pieces and serving.
Notes
- You can experiment with different seasonings such as smoked paprika, chili powder, or Italian herbs for unique flavors.
- Be sure to spread the cottage cheese mixture thinly and evenly to ensure crispiness.
- Allow chips to cool completely; they will crisp up more as they cool.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain their crunch.
