Parmesan Crisps

Need a few homemade nibbles to serve with drinks at a party or pre-dinner?  Well they don't get much easier than these Parmesan Crisps.

These Parmesan crisps are actually so easy, I almost feel like a fraud to call this a recipe.  It has just the one ingredient Parmesan! Although if you really want to go all out, you could add just a sprinkling of cayenne pepper or mix in a little dried thyme.

How to Make Parmesan Crisps

To make the Parmesan Crisp all you do is grate some parmesan and place spoon fulls on a baking sheet and flatten slightly.

Then bake until golden. Do line the baking tray with baking parchment or a non-stick liner first though or you may find they weld themselves to the baking tray.

Leave to cool and serve. I mean easy or what? but if your guests don't know how to make them they will never realise just how simple they were. If they do well they won't care as they taste so good they probably make them themselves too.

They go particularly well with a glass of cold dry sherry or dry white or sparkling wine and make a great pre-dinner nibble.

Perfect for using any up Parmesan cheese that has been sitting at the back of the fridge a little too long. Once made they will keep for up to a week if stored in an airtight container.
