You only need 3 main ingredients to make these low carb tortilla chips. If you roll them out thinly, they become really crunchy.

SERVINGS: 8

INGREDIENTS

 200 g / 2 cups pre-shredded mozzarella

75 g / ¾ cup almond flour ground almonds work well too

2 Tbsp psyllium husk or 2 tsp psyllium husk powder

Pinch salt

Optional: ¼ tsp each garlic powder/onion powder/paprika

INSTRUCTIONS

01. Heat your oven to 180 Celsius / 356 Fahrenheit.

02. Melt the mozzarella in the microwave (ca 90 sec-2 min). Alternatively, heat gently in a non-stick pot.

03. Add the almond flour/ground almonds and psyllium husk plus the salt and spices, if using. Stir until combined, then knead until you have a smooth dough.

04. Separate the dough into 2 balls and roll out between 2 sheets of baking/parchment paper. Roll out as thinly as possible! The thinner, the crispier your tortilla chips will turn out.

05. Cut into triangles (I used a pizza cutter) and spread out on a sheet of baking paper so the tortilla chips don’t touch.  

06. Bake 6-8 minutes or until browned on the edges. Baking time will depend on the thickness of your tortilla chips. I baked mine in 2 rounds, plus a third round for the off-cuts.
