Ingredients
- 1 cup reduced-fat Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Using a box grater or a food processor, finely grate the reduced-fat Parmesan cheese.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, garlic powder, and optional dried Italian herbs, mixing well.
Step 4
Using a tablespoon, evenly scoop small mounds of the Parmesan mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each mound to allow for spreading during baking.
Step 5
With the back of the spoon, gently flatten each mound into a thin circle, ensuring they are of even thickness for uniform cooking.
Step 6
Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 5-8 minutes, or until the crisps are golden brown and bubbly.
Step 7
Watch closely in the final minutes to prevent burning as they can brown quickly.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the crisps cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will continue to harden as they cool.
Step 9
Gently transfer the cooled Parmesan crisps to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or storing.
