High Protein/Low Carb Cottage Cheese Chips‼️
Cottage Chesse Chips
Ingredients:
– 1 cup cottage cheese
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1/4 cup almond flour
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon dried herbs (like oregano or thyme)
– Olive oil spray or a drizzle for cooking
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Mix well until a uniform batter forms. Get in there and really mix it up!
3. Using a spoon, drop small mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread them out to form thin chips, using the back of the spoon to flatten them a bit.
4. Give the tops a light spray with olive oil. This will help get that beautiful crunch we’re going for—think of it as a mini spa day for your chips!
5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
6. Once done, remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. This is the hardest part—patience is key, my friend!
7. Transfer them to a serving platter. For an extra treat, serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt topped with additional herbs for dipping.
