If you are following a low carb or ketogenic lifestyle, then you probably miss the crispy texture of chips. You know, like Doritos, Cheetos and Fritos! Or anything crispy for that matter. Well, fret to more.
It’s simple. Baking cheese makes it crispy, and it takes less than 10 minutes from start to finish before you’re scarfing them down. Top it with pepperoni or salami for added flavor.
Keto Parmesan Pizza Crisps
This easy on-the-go low carb snack idea is super quick and easy! They are like crispy chips, but without all of the guilt. {1 net carb per serving}
Ingredients
12 pieces thin sliced pepperoni or salami
shredded parmesan cheese (about 2/3 cup)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cut the pepperoni slices in half and place them on a microwave safe plate.
Microwave the pepperoni halves for about 30 seconds, and then use a few paper towels to blot off the excess grease.
Cover a large cookie sheet with parchment paper, and lay down small piles of parmesan cheese on top. Flatten each pile to make a consistent thickness (I made 20 piles but probably could have fit 24 or more-- they don't spread while baking).
Top each flattened pile with one of your pepperoni pieces.
Place in the oven for 4-7 minutes, but watch carefully! Every oven varies, so around the 3 minute mark, keep an eye on the oven so that you can pull them out when they are perfectly crispy but not burnt.
Remove from the oven and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Once the crisps are done baking, feel free to top them with dried basil, oregano, red pepper or anything else "pizza-y".
