Carnivore Feta Chips Recipe
Ingredients:
- 8 oz feta cheese block (avoid pre-crumbled feta as it may contain anti-caking agents)
- Optional: 1 tsp butter, beef tallow, or ghee (to lightly grease the baking sheet or parchment paper)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the Feta Cheese:
- Slice the block of feta cheese into thin slices, about 1/8 inch thick. If the block crumbles while slicing, press the pieces together to form chip-sized portions.
- For a different texture, you can also crumble the feta and shape small mounds that will melt into chips while baking.
- Place the Feta on the Baking Sheet:
- Arrange the slices or mounds of feta on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each one.
- Bake the Feta Chips:
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the chips look crisp. Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning, as cheese can brown quickly.
- Cool the Chips:
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chips cool on the tray for about 5 minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool.
- Serve:
- Once fully cooled and crispy, transfer the feta chips to a serving dish. Enjoy them plain, with carnivore-friendly dips (like whipped bone marrow or sour cream), or alongside other meats.
Pro Tips:
- Thickness Matters: The thinner the slices, the crispier the chips will be. However, avoid slicing too thin, as the chips may burn before crisping up.
- Storage: Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If they lose crispiness, you can reheat them in the oven or an air fryer for a few minutes.
- Seasoning (Optional): For a slight twist, sprinkle the chips with a pinch of salt, garlic powder, or other carnivore-approved seasonings before baking.
