These cheese chips are crisp and salty from parmesan cheese. With only three ingredients, they are easy to make for whenever you need a savory appetizer to serve with drinks.
To make the cheese chips, you simply place circles of parmesan cheese on a baking sheet before garnishing them with rosemary and pepper, and baking them in the oven. Once the cheese melts in the oven, the chips turn golden and begin to crisp up.
What are Cheese Chips?
These cheese chips are a three-ingredient recipe made with only parmesan, pepper, and rosemary. Finely grating the parmesan is essential as it will melt easily in the oven, becoming lacy and golden in color.
Pro Tips
- Finely grate the parmesan cheese so that it melts easily in the oven.
- When shaping the chips, you can use a round cookie cutter or mold to help you create perfect circles of cheese.
- Line the baking sheet with parchment paper so that the chips don’t stick.
- Feel free to add other seasonings to the cheese chips such as paprika, onion powder, or garlic powder.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Cheese Chips Healthy?
Cheese chips are low carb and perfect for adding to a keto or low-carb diet. They can definitely be healthy due to the low carb load and protein. However, it is best to eat them in moderation as they can be high in sodium and fat.
Can I Add Other Seasonings to Cheese Chips?
Yes, the sky is the limit when it comes to what you can add to the cheese chips. Rather than adding rosemary, you could sprinkle them with paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, pepper, and more.
Can I Use Other Types of Cheese for Cheese Chips?
Yes, cheeses like pecorino romano, asiago, or grana padano would also crisp up into chips quite well and have a similarly salty flavor to the parmesan. You could also try using cheddar, gouda, swiss, or provolone, but their higher fat content may cause them to spread out more.
How to Store Cheese Chips
Leftover cheese chips can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Just make sure the parmesan crisps are fully cooled before you store them or else they may steam and lose their crispy texture.
