What you'll need
To make easy oven baked Parmesan crisps you basically just need shredded Parmesan cheese! How easy is that?
You can pick a spice of your choosing go sprinkle over the top before baking, some of our favorites are:
- Pepper
- Garlic powder or Garlic salt (go light since Parmesan is salted)
- Italian seasoning
- Everything bagel seasoning
For this particular batch of parmesan cheese crisps, we just sprinkled on a little bit of garlic salt. The sky is endless on what type of favorite seasoning you could sprinkle over the top of these tasty cheese snacks.
Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Tablespoons
- We love to use parchment paper on our baking sheets, it makes for such easy cleanup!
Parchment paper also keeps the oven baked cheese crisps from sticking to the baking sheet—which makes it much harder to clean up. A silpat would also work well or possibly foil.
MAKING PARMESAN CRISPS
- Preheat oven your oven 400 degrees and make sure the rack is in the center of the oven.
- Lay a sheet of parchment paper on the baking rack.
- Drop the shredded Parmesan by 1 tablespoonful mounds onto the baking sheet. Make sure to leave a couple inches of space between each cheese mound.
- Bake on the center oven rack for 6 minutes until crisp.
- Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before removing. If you used parchment paper, the baked Parmesan crisps should just pop right off the pan.
If by chance your Parmesan crisps stuck a little to the pan, try using a thin metal spatula to get them off the baking sheet in one piece.

Carol says
These crisps turned out great. I used shredded parmigiano reggiano from Costco, Kirkland brand, and this made the recipe so easy. Turned out great and didn't stick. Used both a silpat on some batches and parchment pape on others, no difference on how they turned out. Thanks for the recipe.
Sandy says
I tried baking using parchment paper but it stuck to the crisps and could not be peeled off. Any idea why this could happen? Help would be appreciated.
WholeLottaYum says
Hi Sandy, My best guess is that the cheese crisps needed to sit a bit longer on the parchment after baking before trying to remove them.
Stephanie says
Can the Parmesan chips be stored for a couple days?
WholeLottaYum says
They can in the fridge, but it will soften the chips slightly. You could try reheating them for a minute or so to crisp them back up but I haven't tried that before so I'm not 100% certain they'll crisp to how they were when first baked.
