Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup low-fat or whole milk cottage cheese (small curd works best)
- 1.5 tablespoons Everything Bagel seasoning
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Optional: 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (for extra crunch)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with high-quality parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This is a crucial step because the cheese will stick to a bare pan.
- Spoon the cottage cheese onto the prepared baking sheet in small mounds, about one tablespoon each. Use the back of the spoon to flatten each mound into a thin, even circle. Make sure they aren’t touching so they have room to crisp up.
- Generously sprinkle the Everything Bagel seasoning over each circle. If you are using garlic powder or parmesan cheese, add those on top now as well. Lightly press the seasoning into the cheese with your finger so it stays in place.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. You want the edges to be a deep golden brown and the centers to look dry and firm. Every oven is different, so start checking them at the 25-minute mark.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the crisps sit on the baking sheet for at least 5 to 10 minutes. They will continue to firm up and become crunchy as they cool down. Carefully peel them off the parchment paper and enjoy!
