Ingredients
- 1 cup (256 g) whole milk small curd cottage cheese (4% milkfat)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Scoop Cottage Cheese: Use a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out the cottage cheese and drop scoops spaced about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Flatten Scoops: Gently press down each scoop with the back of a metal spoon to flatten the cottage cheese to approximately 3/16 to 1/4 inch thick for even baking.
- Bake the Chips: Bake the flattened cottage cheese for 40-50 minutes, starting to check at around 20 minutes, until the edges turn dark brown and the chips are browned on the surface.
- Cool and Set: Remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool completely for 20-30 minutes until they are firm and crispy.
- Store Properly: Store the cooled chips in an airtight container or sealed bag and consume within a few hours or refrigerate or freeze any leftovers for later consumption.
Notes
- Whole milk small curd cottage cheese (4% milkfat) is key for best texture and browning.
- Ensure chips are thinly flattened to get a crispy finish.
- Monitoring baking time starting at 20 minutes helps prevent burning.
- Allow proper cooling time for chips to set and crisp up fully.
- Store in airtight containers to maintain crunchiness for a short period.
