    Tips & Tricks for Wasy Keto Cheese Crisps

    Prep the Pan

    It's very important that you prep your pan. Having some kind of liner in your pan will help you remove the cheese crisps without breaking. Parchment paper or a baking mat used as a liner for this recipe is a must.

    Grate Your Own Cheese

    Using bagged, pre-shredded cheese will leave you with an oily mess. For this recipe, it's best to grate your cheese fresh off the block. Some bagged cheeses will not work for this recipe, so it's best to just avoid bagged cheeses altogether in this case.

    Cook Time

    Depending on how much or little cheese you use, just know the cook time will vary a bit. Remove your crisps from the oven when they are golden on the edges, flat, and have a nice crispy look to them.

    Any Cheese

    Seasonings

    You can eat these crisps plain or add on any spices you want. Garlic, parmesan, Creole for a Cajun kick, salt, and pepper—you have endless ways to flavor your crisps!

    Easy Keto Cheese Crisp FAQs

    Do cheese crisps store well?

    Since there aren't preservatives in these homemade crisps, you will find that they lose a bit of texture if placed in the fridge after they are cooked. When refridgerated, the crisp will kind of sog up. I tend to make these crisps right when we plan on eating them.

    Why are my cheese crisps not crispy?

    Baking your cheese crisps long enough is key. The other important factor is letting the crisps cool. Otherwise they will be soft instead of crispy. If your crisps don't turn out right, then one or both of the factors above might have been missed.

    Are cheese crisps healthy?

    These cheese crisps are a healthier alternative to chips, crackers, etc. You can even get some calcium and nutrients from the cheese! Just be careful about using too much salt or salted seasonings that will up the sodium levels. These cheese crisps are a keto and low-carb snack option.

    • Sprinkle the everything-but-the-bagel seasoning onto each Parmesan cheese mound. This is optional—these crisps are also delicious plain or with just a little black pepper!

    Notes

    • This recipe was created using real Parmesan cheese that we shredded. The grated Parmesan that you buy in the the shaker cans will not work for making cheese crisps. Some pre-shedded cheeses are mixed with anti-caking ingredients to keep them from sticking together, which means they may not melt well—so fresh is always best.
    • These cheese crisps can be made with other varieties of cheese as well. Cheddar is another favorite of mine!
