Their rich, nutty flavor and irresistible crunch make them a versatile addition to your appetizer table or a delectable pairing for creamy soups and hearty salads. With minimal prep and maximum flavor, these Parmesan crisps are a go-to recipe for quick entertaining or guilt-free snacking.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, combine the finely grated Parmesan cheese, freshly cracked black pepper, and garlic powder if using. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Scoop heaping teaspoonfuls of the mixture and place onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of the spoon to form small circles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 4-5 minutes, or until the crisps are golden and lightly browned around the edges. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the crisps to cool for 2-3 minutes on the sheet. They will firm up as they cool.
Carefully transfer the crisps to a wire rack to cool completely before serving. Enjoy as a snack or pair with dips and soups.
