Ingredients

Scale

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

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Strain Cottage Cheese: 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.
  3. Mix Seasoning: In a small bowl, mix the strained cottage cheese with onion powder, if using, until evenly combined.
  4. Form Chips: 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.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle each round with everything bagel seasoning, if desired.
  6. Bake: Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, watching closely after 25 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are dry.
  7. Cool Chips: Allow the chips to cool completely on the parchment paper. This step helps them crisp up fully before removal.

Notes

  • Make sure to strain the cottage cheese thoroughly to avoid soggy chips.
  • If you don’t have everything bagel seasoning, feel free to use sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or your favorite spice blend.
  • Crisping chips completely after baking is essential for the best texture.
  • These chips are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Experiment with different dips like guacamole, hummus, or sour cream for variety.
