Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups full-fat cottage cheese – For the creamy base.
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese – Adds cheesiness and crispness.
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese – For an extra savory flavor.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil – For richness and crispiness.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder – For savory depth.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder – To enhance flavor.
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika – Adds a smoky touch.
- Salt and pepper – To taste.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Step 3: Shape the Chips
Spoon small dollops of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Use the back of a spoon to flatten them into thin circles or any shape you prefer.
Step 4: Bake
Bake the chips in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy around the edges. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
Step 5: Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will crisp up more as they cool.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Serve the chips as a snack, or dip them in your favorite sauce or dressing!
Notes
- Don’t Overcrowd the Chips: Give each chip enough space on the baking sheet to crisp up evenly.
- Use Full-Fat Cottage Cheese: For the best texture and flavor, go for full-fat cottage cheese.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to add your favorite herbs or spices, like Italian seasoning, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
