I've had a few people tell me that their chips didn't flatten out. I've asked them what brand of cottage cheese they used and to list the ingredients, but no one has replied. If this recipe doesn't work for you, please reply to this comment with the brand of cottage cheese you used, whether it was full fat, and list the ingredients. It shouldn’t take long to narrow down the culprit. Some of the brands that don't work are: Member's Mark, Good Culture, Great Value, Prairie Farms, Knudson, and Kroeger. What all of these brands have in common is that they use skim or fat free milk. My hypothesis is that these brands then use more thickening agent (usually guar gum) to offset the thinner milk.
My chips did not flatten. I'm using 4% milkfat, large curd. After reading this comment I checked the ingredients and was a bit surprised: cultured nonfat milk, cream, whey, salt, maltodextrin, guar gum, citric acid, carrageenan, mono and diglycerides, locust bean gum, polysorbate 80, potassium sorbate, flavors, enzyme.
For sour cream and cottage cheese I use Daisy, their sour cream is just cultured cream and their cottage cheese is cultured skim milk, cream, and salt. I've found most other brands to use some sort of extender/filler product (guar gum, locust bean gum, carageenan, etc,). There are probably other good brands out there, you just need to check the ingredients. Fun Facts: if you were a kid in the 80s you'll know guar gum as the key ingredient of toy store slime E.G. Ghostbusters slime, Masters of the Universe Slime Pit, etc.
Mine spread out a bit, but didn't flatten. I used Daisy 4% milkfat. Ingredients: cultured skim milk, cream, salt. They were very crisp, but not as flat as yours.
I really liked your asking your wife to come in and help. She is so sweet and y’all are a very nice couple! I love the keto ideas with cottage cheese. Great idea! Thank you !
It’s funny how my favorite keto channels all talk about the other ones. The twins come up on almost every one. I wonder why you all don’t get together and start a network. I would definitely watch.
I suspect it's because we are all more into content creation than administrative tasks. If an angel investor and someone who could handle the business aspects (accounting, payroll, publishing, etc.) would come along, I'd totally be for that. Or if America's Test Kitchen wanted to start a keto show...
Ba-BING! Thanks so much for doing the experiments, Steve! These look promising for a way to tame the "crunch monster"! WTG! Love the Keto Twins! Thanks for being a cook of integrity and giving them the credit for putting this on your radar and then you running with it! ❤
This was great, Steve. I've also been inspired in making these by the wonderful Keto Twins. My method is to mix a 32 oz container of cottage cheese with 1 tsp each of garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. I use however much I need and put the rest of the seasoned mixture back in the cottage cheese container for next time. I can't wait to try your baked method! Try this seasoning mixture, it's really good.
PS: I make mine by spreading out a thin layer of the seasoned cottage cheese mentioned above onto an air fryer parchment insert, slide it onto a plate and microwave it for 8.5 to 9 minutes. Let it cool and break it apart into 'rustic' pieces. I'm excited to use your method and bake some perfectly round chips. Thanks again!
I sure would have liked to see a little bit of the dehydrator experiment! I have a big one that I’m using more. I tried your chip experiment in it with pepperoni. When I left thin pepperoni in at 158 F for about 6 hours, I got a delightful snack. It seems like a weird universe where we spend our days making crackers out of pepperoni and cottage cheese on YT, but I sure do appreciate you!
How awesome is it that we can do things like this to really get excited about our recipes again, looking forward to tasting these delicious treats, with no guilt this time! Thanks to this wonderful couple!
I just ran downstairs to whip up some cottage cheese chips after getting inspired by this vid. I'm impatient, so I just used the microwave method. I miraculously had all theses things: the cottage cheese, the ranch powder, the pork panko crumbs, and some pecan flour. No measuring, I put in just a sprinkle of this and that. Stirred it up and put on Silpat rounds . Tasted great, but not as beautiful as Steve's oven baked chips but, hey, they were done by the time the coffee was ready. Thank you Steve for sharing your experiments with us.
I’ve never been able to make these in my microwave. Steve’s 30-second tortillas don’t come out evenly either so I’m pretty sure the problem is my microwave. So glad to see I can try them in the oven! Thanks Steve for all your efforts 😊
I'm obsessed with Tajin (chili and lime seasoning) and put it on ALL THE THINGS. I might have to experiment and see if it turns out tasty. Thanks Steve! And yes, I just started following the Keto Twins a few weeks ago and they crack me up big time!!
Variation ideas: SAVORY: Add chopped kalamata olives & a bit of rosemary. SWEET cookies: Add non-calorie sweetener of choice & vanilla or almond extract. Drizzle or dip one end in melted keto chocolate, or adhere 2 cookies with melted chocolate (like Milano cookies). 😋
For those of you who are lactose intolerant, the Lactaid bend carries lactose free products for their sour cream and cottage cheese. You can see it at the supermarket in the cold section. Lactaid’s brand color is with blue label on the carton.
I checked ingredients when buying my cottage cheese today and noticed quite a few brands add guar gum and other additives besides just cream and salt. I didn't check Lactaid since I bought Daisy which is just cultured cream.
I 've made the chips 3 times now, all using Daisy brand full fat. I just used a Macaroon silicone mat & spread them out to the large circle with a spatula. They turned out great, thin & crisp! Thank you!
These also remind me of the Swedish cookies that you put in your palm and tap to break, hopefully into 3 parts (as a kid I think that was a good luck sign :-) ). They were sweet and a bit spicy. I think ginger in these and a little sweetener might make a admirable substitute! Holidays are a comin'...
Wonder if adding some nutritional yeast to the cheddar powder ones would amp up the cheese flavor? I look forward to trying the pecan, ranch and the pork rind versions soon.
I inadvertently purchased a store brand of cottage cheese and just started looking for a way to use it other than eating it fresh. Thanks again for all you and your family does! 🎉😊
this cottage cheese cracker video was WORTH waiting for!😍 I'm excited to try it with your ranch seasoning recipe that I always have ready in my pantry!
Thanks for the experimenting Steve. Other videos that I've seen with cottage cheese has inconsistent chips. I like how your version takes care of that problem. It actually doesn't take longer when it comes to time you spend working on it... it's much less... and you can get more at one time. I got some One On One flavors, so this should be a good way to use some of them. I've got a potato flavoring in my collection, so that should make a good potato chip version that's much healthier.
@@germangirl1509 I haven't tried it yet. I was going to make radish mashed potatoes and add it to that... but I think this recipe would be where I start. I'll let y'all know what I find out.
It sure does. Mine came out great, but I’m definitely going to try your way. I love these chips. They are a lifesaver, and I love your content. Cute kitty.
If you check out either of the follow-up videos to this, I started using a #100 disher. It works great and yields 24 uniformly sized crackers. amzn.to/4edJLJg
Love the keto twins. I’m still waiting for a chip that can replace potato chips. If you have one, please let me know. I have some salt and vinegar seasoning just waiting for a good faux potato chip. Have I missed one, I don’t always get online, so it’s easy to miss things. They tried adding instant potato and so did I but I wasn’t taken with the result. Potato chips have always been my addiction, and oh how I miss them. About once every three months I give in and buy a bag and devour the bag. Doesn’t fulfill the need, but it helps, with everything but the guilt.
Initially I thought this was going to be more work than I was willing to do, but that big crunch from the pork rinds changed my mind! Would love to have some with fresh made guacamole!
Thanks so much. Mine never turned out well in the microwave or the air fryer or the toaster oven. I’m a person who needs crunchy food everyday. Sooooooooo. I will give this a try even though I decided cottage cheese chips were not for me and swore I’d never make them again. (Also. I don’t think this is necessarily more time since I had to stand and watch for timing before and only had 2-4 chips at a time. Lots of wasted time babysitting the chips!). I have left over cottage cheese so in the oven it’ll go. (I love watching Keto Twins as well).
I made these right after watching your video. They got too brown on the edges after the first step so I lowered the temp to 200’ (I knew my oven runs hot - my bad) They turned out exactly the shape and as crispy as yours. 👍🏻 They will be great for guacamole and cheese dips. Thank you for experimenting.
We are currently on carnivore but as soon as we are finished with our 3 months, I cannot wait to go back to keto and try these out! Thanks for the recipe!
Perfected for sure!! Thank you, Steve!! I've only made 2 batches so far, both with Everything but the bagel seasoning. YUM! And I love that they stay crisp. My next batch I'm going to just use sea salt.
@@SeriousKeto I actually forgot to add it before I scooped it so I sprinkled some on top after the first 40 minutes. I wasn't sure it would stick but most of it did.
I had made these in the microwave many times and they were great, but time consuming. I just tries them in the oven @325 and followed Keto Twins suggestion to add a tad of potato flakes, but they didn't crisp up. I am so excited to try this. Does ot mater what kind of cottage cheese, other than full fat. Thanks so much Steve.
0:45 thank you, thank you, thank you, I've tried the Keto twins process and it seemed a lot of work for haphazard resulting chips. You've improved the process and I just tried it with Pork King Good's ranch pork rinds and a tablespoon of their ranch seasoning and they are delicious. Please keep on, I'm going to try it their smoked jalapeño and cheddar seasoning.
ooohhh I had choczero hazelnut spread..... the keto Chow chip crunched up with chopped hazelnut mixed with the spread into balls, cooled and dipped into a melted chocolate ....may be my keto Ferrero Roche for Christmas treats....
@@exchangestudent2..... I could not get the Keto Chow mix, opted on Catalina Crunch honey grahams chopped. So without a binder, they did not set enough to dip. Took some keto marshmallows and melted it and added to the mix and shaped into balls and cooled it again and they set really well.... they tasted so good that I did not bother with a dip in chocolate. (Added finely chopped pecans already had and wanted to use them up, the little chocolate protein crunchies, and the keto hazelnut spread.)
You and your wife are so cute together! I have made these with the mashed potato extract and with the very small amount of potato flakes , like the twins did , and it was so good. Didn’t feel like I was missing potato chips at all. I am going to try next adding the ranch seasoning from flavor god and the ranch porking good crumbs. I am wondering if besides using the corn extract flavoring if grinding up some baby corn in it will help with a corn chip taste. Thank you for your experiments with the recipes and reviews. It really does help so many of us. :)
@@bhdivotfiller Beautiful Mind! I enjoy finding new uses for my dehydrator. Whenever sliced mushrooms are marked down for quick sale, I used to buy them and rush to make somethig before they turned slimy. Now I just buy as many as I can and pop each container onto a tray in the dehydrator. I can either add the dry mushrooms to a soup or blitz them for Umami powder! I was coming to suggest drying the baby corn but you beat me. I'm glad to see great ideas crossing other great ideas.
@@robinq5511 A 1/2-cup serving of baby corn contains just 5 grams of carbs with 3 grams of fiber for a net of 2 g net carbs. I doubt you will get much better numbers, that will make it worth the effort, but just for ideas, how would you ferment the baby corn? It makes me think of theancient process of using lime on corn, I'm not sure what that does but it was important in history for getitng better nutrition out of mature kernals.
I’ve never seen chips made with cottage cheese! This is great!! I’m going to try these for Christmas. My non keto daughter’s coming to visit. I’d love to get her thought on these! Thanks again!
Gotta love Sarah & Emily! And thanks Steve for the great demo... going to head to the grocers now and get some cottage cheese! Glad to see you and Terri really on the mend! Enjoy the weekend !
I saw another recipe using an air fryer and I didn’t have full fat cottage cheese. They all ran together and were Chewy. Like you, I didn’t give up and found your cooking channel on RUclips. Eureka! My first batch is cooking in the oven and I spiced it up with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. The kitchen smells amazing. I just checked on them and even though I used 2% cottage cheese, they are not watery and flattened out to thin wafers. I am new to keto. I made keto zucchini lasagna the other day. My son just found keto cheeseburger, lettuce boats on Tik Tok. I am hooked on keto. Never felt so good.
Steve, you are my hero! This is exactly the video I've been waiting for you to make for so long, and now here it is. Can't wait to try this out on my own!
I used good culture 2% cottage cheese and they came out amazing. My only mistake was putting everything but the bagel seasoning and they were too salty so live and learn again the good culture two came out awesome I baked them for 35 minutes and they were crispy and delicious.
I've been doing this in my dehydrator for a while now & love it. I just spread it all out on silicone sheets & break it up. Sounds crazy, but spaghetti mix powder is my favorite, with Tajin a close second. I also do yogurt & sandwich meat in the dehydrator. I keep 8oz deli containers of each in my purse so i can snack when I need to.
I did SO MANY iterations of this recipe in a dehydrator and just couldn't get the texture I wanted. Once I went to an oven and got the time/temp dialed in, I was thrilled with the results. Also, I did a video on dehydrating deli meats into chips. 😉
Good Culture has cottage cheese at 6 grams of carbs per cup. Try adding powdered parmesan cheese, perhaps 2 T. per cup of cottage cheese, and salting the batter. The parm makes them taste more like a potato chip. I really like the idea of adding crushed barbecue pork rinds to the cottage cheese chips. Thanks for that idea. If you have not tried making cheese crackers with shredded parmesan cheese, they are freaking awesome too. It would be nice to offer my guests your chips in barbeque and the parmesan cheese crisps for my Christmas eve get together.
I have successfully tried this recipe. I've also added OOO mashed potato flavoring and sprinkled a little Redmond's real salt on top. It's really good and I love the crunchiness!
Unfortunately, I hadn’t tried lowering the temperature. So glad that works. I’ve tried everything else, including using the food processor, which did help avoid inconsistent thickness, but finally gave up trying to get even baking. Thanks again!
Hello , new to this channel. I like that you have experimented with the chips. I made them once in the microwave and they turned out ok, but the second time it was a flop. Now that I have watched your video ,I may try again.
I just made these for the first time with everything bagel seasoning and full-fat cottage cheese containing fiat gum and xantham gum. They’re delicious! I could eat them all in one minute. Need a bigger oven, lol.
Check out the follow up videos. I think you'll get some more cracker mileage out of them. Also, a #100 disher will make 24 more reasonably sized crackers per batch.
I just made my chips today, I used Daisy CC 4% milk fat. After reading comments, I initially put them in at 225, but half way thru the time I spread them with a spatula and changed my temp to 250 F on convection bake ( this was in the first 40 minute bake). Then I proceeded at that temp. 250 for the next 40 minutes. They came out great! I did not need to let them sit in the oven for the next 20 minutes. Nice and crunchy!
@@cathybaumfeld8107 Based on the comments, the Daisy brand doesn't work well for this. It does work well for the mini "flatbreads" that I did in a more recent video. In one of the cracker follow up videos, I list (in the description) which cottage cheese brands work and which don't, based on viewer feedback.
I like many of The Keto Twins recipes... I tried these when I saw them do it. Not bad... Seemed like a lot of work and time for a few chips. I might try three sheet pans at once to speed up the process.
And if you don't care about presentation, u can save more effort by spreading the mix on the mat/parchment paper as a whole thin layer. U can par bake cut/score into even pieces and then return to oven to finish. Even less effort - bake as a whole and then break into pieces😅 I'm making these with peanut flour (pecans are awfully expensive here in Asia) Thanks, Steve!❤
This is awesome! ❤❤ Can't wait to try it. I did the microwave version after watching keto twins and it was a flop. I couldn't get it crispy without burning the edges and they stuck to the parchment 😢
I've had a few people tell me that their chips didn't flatten out. I've asked them what brand of cottage cheese they used and to list the ingredients, but no one has replied. If this recipe doesn't work for you, please reply to this comment with the brand of cottage cheese you used, whether it was full fat, and list the ingredients.

Some of the brands that don't work are: Member's Mark, Good Culture, Great Value, Prairie Farms, Knudson, and Kroeger. What all of these brands have in common is that they use skim or fat free milk. My hypothesis is that these brands then use more thickening agent (usually guar gum) to offset the thinner milk.
My chips did not flatten. I'm using 4% milkfat, large curd. After reading this comment I checked the ingredients and was a bit surprised: cultured nonfat milk, cream, whey, salt, maltodextrin, guar gum, citric acid, carrageenan, mono and diglycerides, locust bean gum, polysorbate 80, potassium sorbate, flavors, enzyme.
@@jtrichards1231 that’s quite an ingredient list. 😬
For sour cream and cottage cheese I use Daisy, their sour cream is just cultured cream and their cottage cheese is cultured skim milk, cream, and salt. I've found most other brands to use some sort of extender/filler product (guar gum, locust bean gum, carageenan, etc,). There are probably other good brands out there, you just need to check the ingredients.
Fun Facts: if you were a kid in the 80s you'll know guar gum as the key ingredient of toy store slime E.G. Ghostbusters slime, Masters of the Universe Slime Pit, etc.

Sounds great!
These chips look so good! I think it’s wonderful that you gave credit to the Keto Twins for giving you this idea! That’s class! Thanks for sharing.
Your voice is so easy and engaging to listen to, you should really read for Audible books!!! Thanks for the great recipes and ideas too.
Thank you. 😊
I agree and was just thinking the same thing 🙂
That's a great idea. I listen to audio books and podcasts all the time (truck driver) and Steve has definitely got a great voice for that!

Changed the game!!! No almond flour and very low carb and I can make as much as I want!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
exactly my sentiments - no oxalates in my body, and also my oven is sub-functional, so it's perfect that the only thing I can use it, is for is this

Wow....soooo easy. Just what the holiday chaos calls for. Simplify simplify. Thanks Steve! Now have to get my creative juices flowin'...
I can't say I would put that much time into making chips but it's terrific you have worked it out
It’s like 5 minutes of active time.
Can't wait to try this! And just in time for the holidays! Thank you Steve!
Wow! I’m looking forward to trying your method! I didn’t have any success with the microwave method. You’re a genius!
Initially I thought this was going to be more work than I was willing to do, but that big crunch from the pork rinds changed my mind! Would love to have some with fresh made guacamole!

Your wife is such a good sport! Very sweet to support you.
She seems like a lovely, genuine person 🥰
ooohhh I had choczero hazelnut spread..... the keto Chow chip crunched up with chopped hazelnut mixed with the spread into balls, cooled and dipped into a melted chocolate ....may be my keto Ferrero Roche for Christmas treats....
Yum!😋
Please let us know how that worked
@@exchangestudent2..... I could not get the Keto Chow mix, opted on Catalina Crunch honey grahams chopped.
So without a binder, they did not set enough to dip. Took some keto marshmallows and melted it and added to the mix and shaped into balls and cooled it again and they set really well.... they tasted so good that I did not bother with a dip in chocolate.
(Added finely chopped pecans already had and wanted to use them up, the little chocolate protein crunchies, and the keto hazelnut spread.)
I 💜 Keto Twins! fun to the creative journey that they inspired for you!😁
I never heard about the cottage cheese crackers - how clever and creative. Thanks Steve. Btw, didn’t know a disher is called a disher.
Have only microwaved these, may try in the airfryer. Good reason to get a double oven! Will try with the bread flavors of OOO flavors.
Can't wait to try them!
You and your wife are so cute together!
I have made these with the mashed potato extract and with the very small amount of potato flakes , like the twins did , and it was so good. Didn’t feel like I was missing potato chips at all.
I am going to try next adding the ranch seasoning from flavor god and the ranch porking good crumbs.
I am wondering if besides using the corn extract flavoring if grinding up some baby corn in it will help with a corn chip taste.
Thank you for your experiments with the recipes and reviews. It really does help so many of us. :)
I suspect that adding wet ingredients might ruin the cracker crunch...
Dehydrating the baby corn and grinding for the win!
@@bhdivotfiller Fermenting the corn first will reduce the carbs
@@bhdivotfiller Beautiful Mind! I enjoy finding new uses for my dehydrator. Whenever sliced mushrooms are marked down for quick sale, I used to buy them and rush to make somethig before they turned slimy. Now I just buy as many as I can and pop each container onto a tray in the dehydrator. I can either add the dry mushrooms to a soup or blitz them for Umami powder! I was coming to suggest drying the baby corn but you beat me. I'm glad to see great ideas crossing other great ideas.
@@robinq5511 A 1/2-cup serving of baby corn contains just 5 grams of carbs with 3 grams of fiber for a net of 2 g net carbs. I doubt you will get much better numbers, that will make it worth the effort, but just for ideas, how would you ferment the baby corn? It makes me think of theancient process of using lime on corn, I'm not sure what that does but it was important in history for getitng better nutrition out of mature kernals.
I’ve never seen chips made with cottage cheese! This is great!! I’m going to try these for Christmas. My non keto daughter’s coming to visit. I’d love to get her thought on these! Thanks again!
Sounds like a success! Gotta try now
How have I never seen these? Can’t wait to try!!
Well done. Thanks so much for doing all the work! Never even thought for a sweet version.
Absolutely awesome, Steve 😊 Thank you!! Can’t wait to try 😊
Big thanks! How about the Real Salt “Chili Lime” or Tajin, then scoop those babies into the salsa. I’m missing the chips and salsa.
what a GREAT video. You have inspired me to try several of these, and to buy your keto chow flavor
Can't wait to try!
Cool! I love crunchy things, looking forward to trying these! Thanks ❤
Oh Steve THANK YOU!!!!!
Gotta love Sarah & Emily! And thanks Steve for the great demo... going to head to the grocers now and get some cottage cheese!
Glad to see you and Terri really on the mend! Enjoy the weekend !
I saw another recipe using an air fryer and I didn’t have full fat cottage cheese. They all ran together and were Chewy. Like you, I didn’t give up and found your cooking channel on RUclips. Eureka! My first batch is cooking in the oven and I spiced it up with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. The kitchen smells amazing. I just checked on them and even though I used 2% cottage cheese, they are not watery and flattened out to thin wafers. I am new to keto. I made keto zucchini lasagna the other day. My son just found keto cheeseburger, lettuce boats on Tik Tok. I am hooked on keto. Never felt so good.
Glad to hear. 🙂👍🏻
Your wife is so sweet! So good to see her. And I agree that you should read for audio books (those AI voices give themselves away with pronunciation).
Steve, you are my hero! This is exactly the video I've been waiting for you to make for so long, and now here it is. Can't wait to try this out on my own!
Thank you Steve! Can’t wait to try them!❤
These are now on the menu for New Years!
Thanks, Steve! Can’t wait to try this.
I used good culture 2% cottage cheese and they came out amazing. My only mistake was putting everything but the bagel seasoning and they were too salty so live and learn again the good culture two came out awesome I baked them for 35 minutes and they were crispy and delicious.
everything but the bagel can pack a lot of punch.
I've been doing this in my dehydrator for a while now & love it. I just spread it all out on silicone sheets & break it up. Sounds crazy, but spaghetti mix powder is my favorite, with Tajin a close second. I also do yogurt & sandwich meat in the dehydrator. I keep 8oz deli containers of each in my purse so i can snack when I need to.
I did SO MANY iterations of this recipe in a dehydrator and just couldn't get the texture I wanted. Once I went to an oven and got the time/temp dialed in, I was thrilled with the results. Also, I did a video on dehydrating deli meats into chips. 😉
Good Culture has cottage cheese at 6 grams of carbs per cup. Try adding powdered parmesan cheese, perhaps 2 T. per cup of cottage cheese, and salting the batter. The parm makes them taste more like a potato chip. I really like the idea of adding crushed barbecue pork rinds to the cottage cheese chips. Thanks for that idea. If you have not tried making cheese crackers with shredded parmesan cheese, they are freaking awesome too. It would be nice to offer my guests your chips in barbeque and the parmesan cheese crisps for my Christmas eve get together.
I don't think I've ever seen that brand...
@@SeriousKeto Walmart and Target carry it, and I'm sure other grocers do if they do. I just picked some up at my local discount closeout grocer.
I found it at Sprouts
Thanks Steve. These I will try. Cottage cheese going on the grocery list 😊
I have successfully tried this recipe. I've also added OOO mashed potato flavoring and sprinkled a little Redmond's real salt on top. It's really good and I love the crunchiness!
How much of the OOO flavor did you add?
@@SeriousKeto .75 ml. Not too mashed potatoee but enough that you can taste the potato. If that makes sense to you.
@@janepost150 thanks. I’ll give it a try.
... and now cottage cheese is on my shopping list! Thanks Steve, and Terri, thanks for showing us your reaction too!
Unfortunately, I hadn’t tried lowering the temperature. So glad that works. I’ve tried everything else, including using the food processor, which did help avoid inconsistent thickness, but finally gave up trying to get even baking. Thanks again!
Your wife is adorable! I was sent here from Highfaluin YT someone left the comment about your site.
Glad to have you here. 😉
Looks delish! Definitely gonna try with pork rinds and some cheddar cheese powder! Thanks!
Here's my version of Better Cheddar crackers using this technique:

@@SeriousKeto yum! Thank you!
Awesome! I need to try these! Thanks for the recipe!
Genius! Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you for answering about ricotta. Saved food and stress.
Though I may have another idea for the ricotta …. Need to do some experimenting. 😉
Great post! Love your improvements for more consistent, very thin crispy cottage cheese chip. Can’t wait to dip these into some guacamole.
Hello , new to this channel. I like that you have experimented with the chips. I made them once in the microwave and they turned out ok, but the second time it was a flop. Now that I have watched your video ,I may try again.
Check out the follow up videos for some more inspiration 🙂
Will definitely be trying these!! Thanks so much.
I just made these for the first time with everything bagel seasoning and full-fat cottage cheese containing fiat gum and xantham gum. They’re delicious! I could eat them all in one minute. Need a bigger oven, lol.
Check out the follow up videos. I think you'll get some more cracker mileage out of them. Also, a #100 disher will make 24 more reasonably sized crackers per batch.
Wow! Thank you Steve and Terri!
I just made my chips today, I used Daisy CC 4% milk fat. After reading comments, I initially put them in at 225, but half way thru the time I spread them with a spatula and changed my temp to 250 F on convection bake ( this was in the first 40 minute bake). Then I proceeded at that temp. 250 for the next 40 minutes. They came out great! I did not need to let them sit in the oven for the next 20 minutes. Nice and crunchy!
Glad to hear you got them dialed in on your oven. I'd encourage you to watch my two follow-up videos where I did some other flavors.
@pamromberg9147. Thanks for the tip. I tried the Daisy 4% and they didn’t spread nor get crispy
@@cathybaumfeld8107 Based on the comments, the Daisy brand doesn't work well for this. It does work well for the mini "flatbreads" that I did in a more recent video. In one of the cracker follow up videos, I list (in the description) which cottage cheese brands work and which don't, based on viewer feedback.
I like many of The Keto Twins recipes... I tried these when I saw them do it. Not bad... Seemed like a lot of work and time for a few chips. I might try three sheet pans at once to speed up the process.
This version is very low effort if you have the tools.
And if you don't care about presentation, u can save more effort by spreading the mix on the mat/parchment paper as a whole thin layer.
U can par bake cut/score into even pieces and then return to oven to finish.
Even less effort - bake as a whole and then break into pieces😅
I'm making these with peanut flour (pecans are awfully expensive here in Asia)
Thanks, Steve!❤
Can’t wait to try your version! Love the Keto Twins, but like others have mentioned, the microwave didn’t work for me. Shout out to all y’all! 😊
In Canada, in store which is how I shop I buy 4% Dairyland cottage cheese and it seems to work good.
Good to know. Thanks.
Golden Grahams cereal?! Now I have to try the keto chow version.
I did watch the Keto Twins video on the cottage cheese crackers. Loved seeing the variations.
This is awesome! ❤❤ Can't wait to try it. I did the microwave version after watching keto twins and it was a flop. I couldn't get it crispy without burning the edges and they stuck to the parchment 😢
I watch it a lot. Love your videos. I’m going to sign up and give you a thumbs up. Keep up the good work.😊
Thank you for your faithfulness to
blessings overtake you❤❤
