Step 3

Drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each mound into a thin, even circle (about 1/8 inch thick).

Step 4

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the chips are crispy. Watch closely to prevent burning.

Step 5

Allow the chips to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes; they will continue to crisp up. Serve immediately with your favorite dip or enjoy on their own.

For best results

  • For extra crispiness, use full-fat cottage cheese and drain any excess liquid before mixing.
  • Experiment with different seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or Italian herbs.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days (though they are best fresh).

Variations

  • Spicy version: Add 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the mixture.
  • Herb version: Substitute everything bagel seasoning with 1 teaspoon dried rosemary and 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
  • Cheesy version: Use a mix of Parmesan and shredded cheddar for a richer flavor.
