Crispy Cottage Cheese Chips Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably low-fat or regular)

• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra crispiness and flavor)

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Cooking spray or a little oil (for greasing)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Lightly grease the surface.

2. Prepare Cottage Cheese Mixture:
   In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese with Parmesan cheese (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well until combined.

3. Form Chips:
   Spoon small dollops of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each dollop gently with the back of the spoon or your fingers to form thin, round discs about 1-2 inches in diameter. The thinner, the crispier!

4. Bake:
   Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown and the chips are crispy. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.

5. Cool and Serve:
   Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes—they will crisp up more as they cool. Serve as a snack or with your favorite dip!

Tips:

• You can experiment by adding herbs like paprika, chili flakes, or dried oregano for extra flavor.

• For an even crispier texture, you can try baking them longer at a lower temperature (e.g., 300°F/150°C) to dry them out more.
