Description
A high-protein, low-carb snack made by blending cottage cheese with egg and cheese, then baking until crispy. These chips are a healthy, gluten-free alternative to traditional potato chips.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup small-curd cottage cheese (drained)
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Blend the drained cottage cheese in a food processor for 1-2 minutes until completely smooth.
- Add the egg, shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and sea salt to the processor. Pulse to combine into a thick batter.
- Spoon small amounts of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets and spread into thin, 3-4 inch round circles.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers look set.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on the pan for at least 10 minutes to allow them to crisp up.
- Transfer to an airtight container and serve or store.
Notes
Drain cottage cheese well to remove excess whey for crispier chips. Spread the mixture thinly to ensure even baking and crispiness. Do not overcrowd the pan. Let chips cool completely before handling to prevent breaking. Can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
