Instructions

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Pro tip: Using parchment paper prevents the cheese from sticking to the pan.

2

Prepare the cheese

Spread the shredded cheese in small, even piles on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each pile to allow for spreading.

Pro tip: Aim for piles about 1 tablespoon in size for uniform crisps.

3

Bake the crisps

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are golden brown.

Pro tip: Keep a close eye to prevent burning.

4

Cool the crisps

Remove from the oven and allow the crisps to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up.

Pro tip: Crisps will harden as they cool.

5

Transfer and serve

Carefully transfer the cooled crisps to a serving platter or storage container.

Pro tip: Use a spatula to lift them gently off the parchment paper.

6

Storage

Store any leftover crisps in an airtight container.

Pro tip: Store at room temperature for maximum crunchiness.
