Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • Optional: 1 egg for added sturdiness
Seasonings (choose your combo):
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Optional extras: Italian herbs taco seasoning, ranch powder, everything bagel seasoning
  • Optional: shredded Parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Oven or air fryer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Fork or spoon
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Prep cottage cheese: If it's watery, strain it briefly. Mash with a fork in a bowl. Add egg if using, and mix in desired seasonings.
  3. Spread thin: Spoon mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread it VERY thin using the back of a spoon. Thinner = crispier.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking at 15 mins and then every 5 mins. Bake until golden brown and set.
  5. Cool completely on the baking sheet for 10+ minutes. This step crisps them up fully.
  6. Break into chips and enjoy!

Notes

For extra crunch, spread the mixture as thin as possible.
Try air frying at 350°F for 10 mins, flipping halfway.
Avoid refrigerating – it makes them soggy. Store at room temp in an airtight container for 2 days.
Sweet version? Add cinnamon and keto sweetener (optional, results vary).
