A healthy, high-protein, low-carb snack made by baking whole milk small curd cottage cheese into crispy chips with optional seasonings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole milk small curd cottage cheese (full-fat preferred for crispier texture)
  • Seasonings of choice (e.g., garlic powder, chili flakes, Parmesan cheese, nutritional yeast)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Drain all the extra liquid from the cottage cheese until you achieve a thick, creamy paste consistency.
  3. Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of cottage cheese onto the lined baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  4. Gently press each mound flat to approximately 1/4 inch thickness.
  5. Sprinkle your chosen seasonings evenly over each flattened dollop.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, checking at 20 minutes to ensure edges are deep golden brown and the surface is toasted.
  7. Remove from the oven and let the chips cool completely on the baking sheet to crisp up before serving.

Notes

Store cooled chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days; use parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking., Refrigerate chips for 3 to 4 days, layering with parchment paper to maintain crunchiness., Freeze chips up to 2 months by first freezing individually on a baking sheet, then transferring to a sealed container or bag., Reheat frozen or refrigerated chips in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5 to 10 minutes to restore crispness., Drain the cottage cheese well to avoid soggy chips., Maintain 1/4 inch thickness for even baking and crunchiness., Season chips lightly to let the cottage cheese flavor shine through.
