Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese: Choose low-fat or full-fat depending on your preference. Cottage cheese gives these chips their light and airy texture, while also providing a protein-packed boost.
  • 1/2 cup almond flour: This adds a subtle nutty flavor and helps achieve that perfect crispiness. You can substitute with other flours like coconut flour for a low-carb option.
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder: For a savory kick that complements the cheese.
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder: Adds a bit of sweetness and depth of flavor to balance the garlic.
  • Salt and pepper: To taste for a little seasoning and extra flavor.
  • Fresh herbs optional: Feel free to throw in a pinch of dried rosemary or thyme for a touch of earthiness.
  • Olive oil spray: Lightly spray your baking sheet and chips to help them crisp up without adding too much oil.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s nice and hot when your chips go in.
  • Mix the dough: In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir the ingredients until they come together into a thick, cohesive dough. If the mixture feels too sticky, simply add a little more almond flour to achieve the right consistency for rolling.
  • Roll out the dough: Lay a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Place your dough on top and gently roll it out using a rolling pin. Aim for about 1/8-inch thickness; thinner dough results in crispier chips.
  • Cut into shapes: Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough into small squares or triangles. Keep the pieces evenly spaced to ensure they bake uniformly.
  • Bake the chips: Lightly spray the dough with olive oil, then pop it in the oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes, checking halfway through. The chips are done when they are golden brown and crispy around the edges. Keep an eye on them, as baking time can vary based on thickness.
  • Cool and enjoy: Once the chips are finished baking, take them out of the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. During this time, they'll firm up and become even crispier.
