Cottage Cheese Chips Recipe
Crispy, high-protein cottage cheese chips made with a single main ingredient. Light, savory, and guilt-free—perfect for healthy snacking, dipping, or adding a satisfying crunch to your favorite meals.
Ingredients
Base
- 1 cup small curd cottage cheese preferably 4% milk fat
Optional Seasonings
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder optional; or substitute with garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning optional topping
For Serving
- ¼ cup your favorite dip optional; e.g. tzatziki, ranch, or yogurt dip
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Strain the cottage cheese using a fine mesh strainer. Gently pat it dry with a paper towel until it feels slightly dry to the touch.
- In a small bowl, mix the strained cottage cheese with onion powder, if using, until evenly combined.
- Scoop tablespoons of the mixture onto the lined baking sheet, leaving space between each. Flatten gently into thin rounds using the back of a spoon.
- Sprinkle each round with everything bagel seasoning, if desired. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, watching closely after 25 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are dry.
- Allow the chips to cool completely on the parchment paper. This step helps them crisp up fully before removal.
Notes
- For extra crunch, don’t skip straining the cottage cheese.
- Get creative with spices—smoked paprika, garlic salt, or even cinnamon for a sweet version.
- Store leftovers in the fridge and re-crisp in the oven before serving.
