Description

Crispy Cheese Crackers unveil a mouthwatering world of irresistible snacking bliss. Homemade goodness meets simple ingredients, creating a perfect blend of flavor and texture for quick munching pleasure.


Ingredients

Scale

Cheese:

  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese

Binding Agent:

  • 1 egg

Seasoning:

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Craft a uniform layer of cheese mixture on parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring maximum thinness for crisp texture.
  2. Thoroughly blend Parmesan, mozzarella, egg, and onion powder in a mixing bowl until ingredients integrate seamlessly.
  3. Position oven rack in center position and heat to 350F (175C), creating optimal environment for cheese crisps.
  4. Distribute cheese mixture evenly across parchment paper, spreading with gentle motions to maintain consistent thickness.
  5. Transfer baking sheet to preheated oven, allowing cheese to transform into golden, lacy crackers within approximately 15 minutes.
  6. Monitor closely during final cooking stage, watching for edges to turn deep golden and crisp, indicating perfect doneness.
  7. Remove from oven and permit brief cooling period, which allows cheese crisps to firm and become delightfully crunchy.
  8. Gently fracture into irregular fragments, creating rustic, artisanal-style snack ready for immediate consumption.

Notes

  • Make sure cheese is finely grated to ensure even melting and crispy texture throughout the snack.
  • Experiment with different cheese blends like cheddar or gouda for unique flavor variations that suit personal taste preferences.
  • Use silicone baking mats as an alternative to parchment paper for easy cheese removal and minimal cleanup.
  • For low-carb and keto dieters, this recipe is naturally compliant and provides a perfect crunchy, satisfying alternative to traditional chips.
