Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese Use low-fat cottage cheese for a healthier option.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan or cheddar cheese Choose your favorite type of cheese.
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup almond flour or crushed beef rinds Use crushed beef rinds for extra crunch.

Spices

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • pinch salt
  • pinch pepper

Method

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, grated cheese, egg, almond flour (or crushed beef rinds), garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • Spread the mixture into a thin layer on the prepared baking sheet, smoothing it out evenly.

Baking

  • Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before cutting into fries.

Serving

Notes

If you have leftovers, let the fries cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, place them back in the oven for a few minutes to regain their crispiness. For extra crunch, use crushed beef rinds instead of almond flour. Feel free to mix in chopped veggies like spinach or bell peppers for added nutrition.
