At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!

Low Carb Parmesan Crisps

If you’ve taken up a low carb diet (like I am trying to stick to, thanks to watching my husband’s runaway success since going keto), you might know how much it’s very real to mis crispy, crunchy, and delicious salty crackers.

There’s only so many nuts I can eat for a snack – sometimes I just crave something crispy and crunchy.

I also really miss having non-vegetable things to dip!

These easy baked parmesan crisps are simple and easy – and are perfect for snacking on when you need something crunchy, or when you need a sturdy cracker for dipping!

Keto Cheese Crackers

If you’re on a keto diet – you’ve probably already scoured the internet for a delicious, crunchy, and crispy baked keto cheese cracker recipe like I did!

If you’re looking for something simple that you dont have to measure, mix, or slave over – you’re in the right place.

Since fricos are made from cheese, and only cheese, they are naturally low carb and fit into macros perfectly!

What is a Frico

Fricos are thin, crisp crackers made out of cheese.

In Italy, they are typically made from Montasio cheese – but cheddar, asiago, and parmesan are perfect for making thin, crunchy fricos as well!

Fricos are perfect because they are simple and easy – plus they involve just one ingredient (unless you’d like to try adding chives, herbs, or salt and pepper) – plus it doesn’t take any fancy equipment to make these delicious, addictive, and simple keto crunchy baked cheese crackers!

How to Make Baked Parmesan Crisps

These easy keto cheese crackers couldn’t be easier – place shredded cheese on a silpat or parchment paper and bake!

It is important to let fricos cool completely before eating to get a crunchy, crisp texture.

Before these keto cheese crackers set, however, you can lay them on a rolling pin to shape them like a taco shell (perfect for keto tacos!) or over a bowl for a mini bowl shaped cracker you could fill with soft cheese, dip, or even vegetables!
