Crispy, salty Parmesan Crisps can be eaten alone, used as a garnish, or crumbled over salads.

Parmesan Crisps recipe makes 8 crisps

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 lb (about 1 cup) Parmesan cheese, finely grated. Use the smallest holes on a box grater.
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper or black pepper - optional. This will make the crisps quite spicy.

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 325

Mix together the grated cheese and pepper.

Line a cookie sheet with either parchment paper or a nonstick silicone baking pad. Using a Tablespoon measurement, drop even mounds of parmesan cheese on the baking sheet. Use your fingers to pat the cheese into a thin circle about 3 inches across in size. Make sure none of the circles are touching.

Bake five minutes, or until golden and crisp. When the crisps are still warm, you can fold them around the handle of a wooden spoon to give them some shape, or just leave the crisps as flat rounds.
