FAQs
Can I Use Store-Bought Shredded Parmesan?
- Yes. I like using parmesan that comes in a block that I can shred myself. But you can use whatever you like!
Is This Recipe Healthy?
- Homemade parmesan crips are low in calories and carbohydrates, high in protein, and contain calcium. These parmesan crisps only have 1 ingredient in them - parmesan cheese, which makes them a cleaner and healthier option for a snack.
Why Did My Crisps Turn Out Soggy
- If your parmesan crisps turn out soggy you most likely didn’t bake them long enough or you didn't let them cool long enough. Make sure you bake your parmesan crisps for 7-8 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the edges start turning golden brown. Then let them cool for at least 10 minutes so that the crisp has time to cool and get crunchy.
