→ For Baking
08 -
Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing
# Steps:
01 -
Set oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
02 -
In a medium bowl, mix cottage cheese, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs, salt, and black pepper until well blended and uniform.
03 -
Using a spoon or small scoop, drop small mounds of the mixture onto the prepared sheet, allowing about 2 inches of space between each. Gently flatten each mound slightly to promote crisping.
04 -
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, monitoring closely during the last few minutes until edges are golden and centers bubble for optimal crispness.
05 -
Allow chips to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer carefully to a wire rack to firm up and achieve peak crispiness.
# Notes & Tips:
01 -
Drain cottage cheese slightly if too wet to enhance crispness.
02 -
Once cooled, store chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
03 -
Reheat in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes to restore crunch.
04 -
Substitute Parmesan with shredded cheddar or mozzarella; for dairy-free, use plant-based cheese blends and consider nutritional yeast for flavor.
