Crunchy, protein-packed cottage cheese chips that are easy to make, gluten-free, and perfect for healthy snacking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup of almond flour or oat flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs (like chives or parsley)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place cottage cheese in a fine mesh strainer and drain excess liquid for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine drained cottage cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Add optional ingredients if desired and mix gently.
  5. Use a tablespoon to scoop mixture onto baking sheet, flattening into thin circles.
  6. Ensure chips are spaced evenly apart for even baking.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until edges are golden and chips are crispy.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool on wire rack for maximum crispiness.

Notes

Drain the cottage cheese well for a crispier texture. Avoid overcrowding the pan and overmixing the batter to maintain a light texture.
