A guilt-free snack that’s both easy to make and delicious, these savory cheese bites are crispy, satisfying, and packed with protein.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups cottage cheese (preferably low-fat or fat-free)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite blend)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup almond flour (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
Incorporate the shredded cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper into the blended cottage cheese. If using almond flour, add it now as well. Pulse until everything is well combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop small mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart and flattening them slightly.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
Once baked, let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
