Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Grate the cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese, if not already grated, and mix them together in a medium-sized bowl.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and then add it to the cheese mixture, combining thoroughly.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the cheese and egg mixture. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each scoop slightly using the back of the spoon.
Repeat with the remaining mixture, spacing each cheese mound about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading while baking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow the baked cheese to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your easy, cheesy keto snack!
