Ingredients
Main Components
- 1 cup (100g) blanched almond flour
- 2 cups (200g) shredded mozzarella cheese (at room temperature)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt, to taste
Pro Tip: Use finely ground almond flour for the best texture.
Optional Seasoning

Expert Tips (Before You Start)
- Melt the Cheese Properly: Microwave the cheese in short bursts, stirring between intervals, to avoid uneven melting.
- Roll Thin and Even: The thinner the dough, the crispier the chips. Uneven thickness can lead to some chips being too soft.
- Monitor Baking Time: These chips can go from golden to burnt quickly—keep an eye on them during the last few minutes.

Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt.
- Melt the Cheese: Place the shredded mozzarella in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1-2 minutes until fully melted. Stir to ensure a smooth consistency.
- Mix the Dough: Add the melted cheese and egg to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until a uniform dough forms. If the dough becomes stiff, microwave it for another 10-15 seconds to soften.
- Roll Out the Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll it out to about 1/16 inch (1.5mm) thickness.
- Cut into Chips: Remove the top parchment paper. Cut the dough into triangle-shaped chips using a pizza cutter or knife.
- Bake to Perfection: Transfer the cut chips onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let the chips cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to crisp up further. Serve with your favorite dips and enjoy!
