Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk cottage cheese (small curds work best)
- Optional seasonings:
- Everything Bagel seasoning
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Chili powder
- Dried herbs (rosemary, thyme, or chives)
- Shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Cottage Cheese: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of cottage cheese onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Flatten each scoop to ¼-inch thick using the back of a spoon.
- Season: Sprinkle your choice of seasonings or shredded cheese over each portion.
- Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the edges turn dark brown and the centers are a golden brown. The browner they get, the crispier they will be.
- Cool & Enjoy: Let the chips cool completely on the baking sheet—they will continue to crisp as they cool.
Notes
- Extra Cheesy: Mix in shredded cheddar or Parmesan before baking for added flavor.
- Herb Infusion: Stir in dried rosemary, thyme, or chives for a fresh, aromatic touch.
- Spicy Kick: Add chili powder, cayenne, or smoked paprika for a bold, spicy flavor.
- Sweet Version: Sprinkle with cinnamon and a sugar substitute for a unique sweet snack
