What makes this cheese crisp recipe the best
Big, Bold Flavor:
Asiago cheese has a sharper, nuttier flavor than cheddar or Parmesan, which gives these crisps a rich, savory bite that truly stands out. However it is not overly pungent or strong tasting. Just gives you a good amount of flavor.
Perfectly Crispy Every Time:
With just the right bake time and technique, these crisps come out golden and crunchy — not greasy, chewy, or overcooked. They are also more delicate tasting then if you were using Parmesan. Now don't get me wrong Parmesan crisps are great as well, more details below.
No Fillers, Just Cheese:
Made with 100% real Asiago and optional seasonings (like garlic powder or chili flakes), these crisps are naturally low-carb and gluten-free. Yes, you can buy processes cheese crisps from your local grocery store but they can be filled with other "fluff" ingredients and preservatives.
Fast and Foolproof:
All you need is shredded cheese and a baking sheet. They're ready in under 15 minutes and practically impossible to mess up. These are so simple!
Versatile & Snack-Ready:
Serve them as crackers with dips, crumble them onto soups and salads, or pack them for an on-the-go snack that doesn’t compromise on flavor.
See how light and crisp these look? The Asiago cheese when shredded using the Microplane greater creates and even more delicate texture that is great when included in a fresh salad.

Questions and answers
Do I have to use Asiago Cheese?
No, You can use Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, really any hard cheese will work. I have found that the Parmesan cheese creates the strongest crisp.
They look soft while cooking in the oven, will they get hard and crisp?
The crisps will be soft while cooking they will look greasy and you may think its not working. Give it time, pull them out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes and they will firm up.
They crumble what is going on?
Sometimes they crumble which might be what you want if you are using these Asiago Crisps for salad toppers. But most of the time this happens when there was not enough cheese. Pile the cheese a little higher so that when it melts it will create more "structure" to the crisp.
