Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat or part-skim cottage cheese, well drained
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mixture: Drain any excess liquid from the cottage cheese to avoid sogginess. In a medium bowl, combine the drained cottage cheese, grated Parmesan, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika (if using). Mix everything thoroughly until you have a homogeneous dough-like consistency.
  2. Form the Chips: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or your hands, portion out small blobs of the mixture, then gently flatten each to about 1/8 inch thickness, shaping them into rounds or squares based on your preference.
  3. Bake Until Crispy: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the chips feel firm to the touch. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  4. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the chips to cool completely on the baking sheet or a wire rack; this helps them crisp up even more before serving. Enjoy immediately or store for later snacking.

Notes

  • Drain Well: Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the cottage cheese for crispier chips.
  • Even Thickness: Keep all chips uniformly thin to ensure even baking and crispiness.
  • Watch Baking Time: Check your chips a few minutes before time’s up to avoid over-browning.
  • Use Parchment Paper: Prevent sticking and make cleanup effortless by lining your baking tray.
  • Customize Seasonings: Add fresh herbs or spice blends before baking for variety.
