Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese Use low-fat or full-fat based on preference
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar or mozzarella) Sharp cheddar for more flavor or mozzarella for a milder result
  • 1/4 cup almond flour or breadcrumbs Almond flour for lower-carb; breadcrumbs yield a crisper chip
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper To taste
  • cooking spray or olive oil For baking

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, shredded cheese, almond flour or breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.
Forming the Chips
  1. Spoon small dollops (about a tablespoon each) onto the prepared sheet, spacing them at least 1 inch apart. Flatten each slightly.
  2. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or brush with olive oil.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 15–20 minutes, watching after 12 minutes for golden edges.
  2. Remove from the oven and let chips cool on the sheet for at least 5 minutes before moving.

Notes

Store cooled chips in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Re-crisp in a 350°F oven or toaster oven for 5–8 minutes.
