To add some variety to your keto diet in the simplest form, these cheese pickle chips are a great way.
Easy keto snacks are the best ones.
It doesn’t get any easier than melting together shredded cheese and pickles!
Tips for making:
- Use any kind of cheese you’d like. I used Colby Jack and cheddar. A sharp white cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss, or Pepperjack would all be amazing too! By hand, I shredded my cheese as I think it melts better this way.
- Make sure you get dill pickles and for any added sugar, check the label.
- I used TWO tbsp. of cheese on top and below the pickles. Use 1 tablespoon for each layer instead, if you want a thinner chip. If you use less cheese, the cooking time will be shorter.
- To these chips, you can add 1 or 2 pickles. I use one pickle per chip(it had plenty of pickle taste). Before adding them to the muffin tin I thought about patting the pickles dry, but I think that would have taken away from the pickle flavor. This way, you get a little bit of dill pickle juice!
- From the cheese, if you notice a lot of oil, about 5 minutes before the chips are done, pat it out with a paper towel.
- The crispier they will get, the longer you bake the chips.
