Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Prep the Base: Place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and pulse until completely smooth.
-
Mix the Dough: In a bowl, combine the smooth cottage cheese with the almond flour, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until a thick paste forms.
-
Spread Thinly: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take small spoonfuls of the mixture and spread them into very thin circles. The thinner they are, the crispier they will be.
-
Bake: Place in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes. Watch closely toward the end; you want them to be golden brown with darker, lacy edges as shown in the photo.
-
Cool and Crisp: Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the pan. They will continue to firm up and become “crispy delights” as they reach room temperature.
-
Final Garnish: Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and freshly chopped parsley or chives while still slightly warm.
FAQ & Storage
-
Can I make them in an air fryer? Yes! Air fry at 190°C (375°F) for 8–10 minutes, checking frequently to ensure they don’t burn.
-
My chips are chewy, not crispy. What happened? This usually means they were either spread too thick or didn’t bake long enough. Try leaving them in the oven for a few extra minutes until the centers feel firm to the touch.
-
Storage: These are best eaten immediately. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 24 hours. Re-crisp in the oven for 2 minutes if they soften.
How to Serve
Serve these delights on a wooden board as pictured, accompanied by a cool Greek yogurt dip or a spicy salsa. They are sturdy enough to hold up to dipping and make a fantastic addition to a keto-friendly charcuterie board.
