Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 390 g before cooking, which is about 195 g per serving.
Steps
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190 °C) (190°C (375 °F)) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and the egg.
Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste, then stir until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and use a spatula to spread it as thin as possible. Focus on getting the edges very thin to ensure they become crispy.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is blistered and the edges are deep golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let the cheese sheet cool completely on the pan; it will continue to crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled and hardened, break the sheet into irregular shards or crackers.
Notes
For the best results, use full-fat cottage cheese to ensure a better texture. Ensure you spread the mixture very thin on the baking sheet; if it is too thick, it will remain chewy rather than snapping like a cracker.
