Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the grated low sodium parmesan cheese, paprika, and ground black pepper. Mix well to ensure that the spices are evenly distributed throughout the cheese.
Spoon heaping tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of a spoon to form a thin disc, about 2 inches in diameter.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 5 to 8 minutes, or until the parmesan crisps are golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the crisps to cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes. This will allow them to firm up slightly.
Carefully transfer the cooled parmesan crisps to a wire rack using a spatula and let them cool completely before serving.
Enjoy these low sodium parmesan crisps on their own as a snack, or use them to top salads, soups, or any dish needing a cheesy, crunchy boost.
