Ingredients
- 2 cups cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- Optional: garlic powder, paprika, or other spices for flavoring
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to fully preheat for even baking.
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.
- Form the chips: Drop small mounds, approximately 2 tablespoons each, of cottage cheese onto the parchment-lined sheet, spacing them out adequately.
- Flatten the mounds: Gently press each mound with the back of a spoon to flatten them, which helps achieve a crispier texture.
- Add seasoning (optional): Sprinkle your choice of garlic powder, paprika, or other spices over the flattened mounds for enhanced flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chips turn golden brown and become crispy.
- Cool and serve: Remove from the oven, let the chips cool slightly to firm up, then enjoy immediately or store for later snacking.
Notes
- Use full-fat cottage cheese for richer flavor and better texture, though low-fat works as a lighter alternative.
- Ensure the cottage cheese mounds are flattened well for an even crispiness.
- Experiment with various seasonings like chili powder, cumin, or Italian herbs to customize the flavor.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
- These chips can be a perfect dip companion or eaten on their own as a crunchy snack.
