Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes sliced ¼ inch thick
  • 2 cups Kraft Natural Cheese Parmesan divided
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Trader Joe’s Green Goddess seasoning (optional)
  • Sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh thyme or rosemary for garnish

Method

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2. Cut the potatoes: Slice into ¼-inch rounds. Use small maple leaf cutters to punch out “leaves.” Place the leaves in an ice bath for 30 minutes to remove starch and help them crisp, then pat completely dry with a paper towel.
  3. 3. Brush and season: Coat both sides of each leaf with olive oil or butter. Sprinkle with Kraft Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and optional Green Goddess seasoning.
  4. 4. Bake: Arrange the leaves in a single layer on the prepared sheet. Bake 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.
  5. 5. Finish and serve: While warm, sprinkle with the remaining Kraft Parmesan and garnish with fresh thyme or rosemary. Serve with the garlic aioli for dipping.

    Oh can’t wait to make these and take to our next get together. Just wandering how they will travel and if they’ll stay crispy to eat also as snacks later??
