Our Parmesan Cheese Crisps recipe is exactly what your low-carb snacking game has been missing! Better and more affordable than store-bought, this recipe has two easy methods: the traditional oven-baked route or a slightly faster skillet one.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Add 1 tablespoon scoops of Parmesan cheese, evenly spaced, and at least 1 inch apart. Using the back of a spatula, flatten the rounds until they are each about 2-3 inches in width and no more than ⅛-¼ inch thick.
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Bake in the preheated oven for 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the pan and place on a plate to cool and continue hardening for 5 minutes.
To Make in a Skillet:
Place a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once warm, add 1 tablespoon scoops of Parmesan cheese, evenly spaced, and at least 1 inch apart. Using the back of a spatula, flatten the rounds until they are each about 2-3 inches in width and no more than ⅛-¼ inch thick.
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden. Flip each crisp over and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
Remove the crisps from the skillet and place on a plate to cool and continue hardening for 5 minutes.

Notes
Cheese variety: Make sure the Parmesan cheese does not have an anti-caking agent in it, such as cellulose.
Thickness: Spread the cheese to no more than ¼ inch thick so they cook evenly and crispy.
Rest: After cooking, the crisps will continue spread and harden.
