Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) or your air fryer to 325°F (160°C) for a quicker cooking time.

Place a sheet of parchment paper on your baking tray to avoid sticking.

In a blender or food processor, blend 1 cup of cottage cheese until you achieve a smooth consistency.

If you prefer a chunkier texture, you can skip this step and stir the cottage cheese well with a spoon.

Add salt and any optional seasonings to the blended mixture, then mix well.

Using a spoon or piping bag, drop small, even portions onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Use the back of a spoon to spread each portion into a thin, circular shape—this helps achieve that perfect crisp.

Oven Method: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and crispy.

Air Fryer Method: Cook for 12-15 minutes, checking frequently to prevent burning.

Once baked, let the chips cool completely on the baking sheet—this helps them firm up.

Carefully remove and enjoy your homemade cottage cheese chips as a snack or with your favorite dips!
