I've had a few people tell me that their chips didn't flatten out. I've asked them what brand of cottage cheese they used and to list the ingredients, but no one has replied. If this recipe doesn't work for you, please reply to this comment with the brand of cottage cheese you used, whether it was full fat, and list the ingredients. It shouldn’t take long to narrow down the culprit. Some of the brands that don't work are: Member's Mark, Good Culture, Great Value, Prairie Farms, Knudson, and Kroeger. What all of these brands have in common is that they use skim or fat free milk. My hypothesis is that these brands then use more thickening agent (usually guar gum) to offset the thinner milk.

My chips did not flatten. I'm using 4% milkfat, large curd. After reading this comment I checked the ingredients and was a bit surprised: cultured nonfat milk, cream, whey, salt, maltodextrin, guar gum, citric acid, carrageenan, mono and diglycerides, locust bean gum, polysorbate 80, potassium sorbate, flavors, enzyme.

For sour cream and cottage cheese I use Daisy, their sour cream is just cultured cream and their cottage cheese is cultured skim milk, cream, and salt. I've found most other brands to use some sort of extender/filler product (guar gum, locust bean gum, carageenan, etc,). There are probably other good brands out there, you just need to check the ingredients. Fun Facts: if you were a kid in the 80s you'll know guar gum as the key ingredient of toy store slime E.G. Ghostbusters slime, Masters of the Universe Slime Pit, etc.

I suspect it's because we are all more into content creation than administrative tasks. If an angel investor and someone who could handle the business aspects (accounting, payroll, publishing, etc.) would come along, I'd totally be for that. Or if America's Test Kitchen wanted to start a keto show...

Yay for Keto Twins!! Thanks for trying all those combinations, Steve!

This was great, Steve. I've also been inspired in making these by the wonderful Keto Twins. My method is to mix a 32 oz container of cottage cheese with 1 tsp each of garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. I use however much I need and put the rest of the seasoned mixture back in the cottage cheese container for next time. I can't wait to try your baked method! Try this seasoning mixture, it's really good.

I sure would have liked to see a little bit of the dehydrator experiment! I have a big one that I’m using more. I tried your chip experiment in it with pepperoni. When I left thin pepperoni in at 158 F for about 6 hours, I got a delightful snack.

I just ran downstairs to whip up some cottage cheese chips after getting inspired by this vid. I'm impatient, so I just used the microwave method. I miraculously had all theses things: the cottage cheese, the ranch powder, the pork panko crumbs, and some pecan flour. No measuring, I put in just a sprinkle of this and that. Stirred it up and put on Silpat rounds . Tasted great, but not as beautiful as Steve's oven baked chips but, hey, they were done by the time the coffee was ready. Thank you Steve for sharing your experiments with us.

Can't wait to try this! And just in time for the holidays! Thank you Steve!

Steve, you are my hero! This is exactly the video I've been waiting for you to make for so long, and now here it is. Can't wait to try this out on my own!

These are now on the menu for New Years!

I saw another recipe using an air fryer and I didn’t have full fat cottage cheese. They all ran together and were Chewy. Like you, I didn’t give up and found your cooking channel on KZread. Eureka! My first batch is cooking in the oven and I spiced it up with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. The kitchen smells amazing. I just checked on them and even though I used 2% cottage cheese, they are not watery and flattened out to thin wafers. I am new to keto. I made keto zucchini lasagna the other day. My son just found keto cheeseburger, lettuce boats on Tik Tok. I am hooked on keto. Never felt so good.

Thanks for the experimenting Steve. Other videos that I've seen with cottage cheese has inconsistent chips. I like how your version takes care of that problem. It actually doesn't take longer when it comes to time you spend working on it... it's much less... and you can get more at one time. I got some One On One flavors, so this should be a good way to use some of them. I've got a potato flavoring in my collection, so that should make a good potato chip version that's much healthier.

Love the keto twins. I’m still waiting for a chip that can replace potato chips. If you have one, please let me know. I have some salt and vinegar seasoning just waiting for a good faux potato chip. Have I missed one, I don’t always get online, so it’s easy to miss things. They tried adding instant potato and so did I but I wasn’t taken with the result. Potato chips have always been my addiction, and oh how I miss them. About once every three months I give in and buy a bag and devour the bag. Doesn’t fulfill the need, but it helps, with everything but the guilt.

I had made these in the microwave many times and they were great, but time consuming. I just tries them in the oven @325 and followed Keto Twins suggestion to add a tad of potato flakes, but they didn't crisp up. I am so excited to try this. Does ot mater what kind of cottage cheese, other than full fat. Thanks so much Steve.

I will give this a try even though I decided cottage cheese chips were not for me and swore I’d never make them again. (Also. I don’t think this is necessarily more time since I had to stand and watch for timing before and only had 2-4 chips at a time. Lots of wasted time babysitting the chips!). I have left over cottage cheese so in the oven it’ll go. (I love watching Keto Twins as well).
