Crispy Parmesan Cottage Cheese Chips
Extra cheesy, extra crispy, and packed with protein.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (8 oz) full-fat small-curd cottage cheese
- ¼ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
- ½ tsp onion powder (optional)
- Everything-bagel seasoning, chili flakes, or herbs for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat & Prep
Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. - Remove Excess Liquid
Place cottage cheese in a fine-mesh strainer and let drain for 5–10 minutes.
Gently press with the back of a spoon or pat with a paper towel to remove as much moisture as possible—this step is key for crispiness. - Mix
In a small bowl, combine drained cottage cheese with grated Parmesan, garlic powder, and onion powder (if using). Stir until evenly mixed. - Shape the Chips
Scoop 1 tablespoon of the mixture per chip onto the baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
Flatten gently with the back of a spoon to about ¼ inch thick. - Season
Sprinkle with your favorite toppings or seasoning blend. - Bake
Bake for 30–40 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers are set.
(Thinner chips will crisp faster; thicker ones may take a few extra minutes.) - Cool
Let chips cool completely on the baking sheet—this is when they become extra crunchy.
