Ingredients
Scale
Chips
- 1 large ripe avocado
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare the avocado mixture: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado until smooth. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper, then mix thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Form the chips: Using a spoon, drop small mounds of the avocado mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart. Flatten each mound carefully into a thin, even circle using the back of the spoon to achieve crispiness when baked.
- Bake the chips: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crisp around the edges.
- Cool and serve: Allow the chips to cool completely on the baking sheet to maintain crispness before removing them. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Notes
- Ensure the chips are flattened thinly and evenly for optimal crunchiness.
- For a spicy twist, add chili flakes to the mixture before baking.
- Use nutritional yeast as a dairy-free alternative to Parmesan cheese for a vegan version.
