Description
Crispy keto pizza chips combine the zesty flavors of classic pizza with a low-carb crunch. Cheese, herbs, and pepperoni create a satisfying snack you’ll crave again and again.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (480 ml) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 12 slices pepperoni
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) italian seasoning
- Keto pizza sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preparation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, creating an optimal non-stick surface for cheese chip formation.
- Cheese Placement: Strategically drop mozzarella cheese mounds across the sheet, spacing them to allow natural spreading during baking.
- Seasoning and Topping: Sprinkle Italian seasoning over cheese mounds and center each with a pepperoni slice, building a robust flavor foundation.
- Baking Process: Position the sheet in an oven preheated to 375°F (190°C), tracking the cheese’s transformation into crisp, golden chips.
- Monitoring and Cooling: Watch chips closely as edges caramelize to a rich golden-brown, then remove and let rest momentarily to solidify and develop a satisfying crunch.
- Serving: Delicately transfer cooled chips to a serving plate, pairing with low-carb pizza sauce for an enhanced dipping experience that complements the savory, crisp texture.
Notes
- Cheese Selection: Use full-fat, low-moisture mozzarella for the best crispy texture and optimal melting performance.
- Spacing Matters: Leave at least 1-2 inches between cheese mounds to prevent merging and ensure individual chip formation.
- Watch Closely: Baking time varies between 5-7 minutes; ovens differ, so monitor chips to avoid burning or undercooking.
- Cooling Technique: Let chips cool completely on the baking sheet to achieve maximum crunchiness and prevent sogginess.
