Instructions
Turn the oven to 350 F to preheat and make sure the oven rack is in the center position.
Put a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet to prevent the cheese from sticking.
Lay the cheese slice squares onto the parchment paper, making sure to spread them out to try and prevent them from melting into each other. Any type of cheese you’d eat in slices works well- cheddar, havarti, Colby Jack, etc. Sprinkle the cheese crackers with salt, garlic salt, or your seasoning of choice if you’re using it.
Bake the keto cheese crackers for 12-15 minutes, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
The crackers will harden as they cool.
Enjoy! Serve with your favorite dip, as is, or add them on a healthy charcuterie board.

Notes
Be sure to use parchment paper, the cheese will stick to either wax paper, foil, or a plain baking sheet.
The cheese will get even crisper as it cools. If by some chance your cheese doesn’t seem to be crisp and cooked through (maybe it’s thicker than the cheese used in this recipe or a different type of cheese?), simply pop it back in the oven for another minute or two, keeping a close eye on the cheese crackers so they don’t burn.
Sometimes the outer pieces are done and crisp but the inside pieces on the pan aren’t quite done. If this happens to you, simply remove the crispy pieces, spread the remaining keto cheese crackers on the pan and bake for a couple more minutes or so.
Depending on how close together the cheese is on the pan, the cheese could spread as it melts. If the cheese melts into the other cheese squares, don’t worry, they’ll still turn out amazing! After the keto cheese crackers cool enough to handle, use a pizza cutter, kitchen shears, or knife to cut the pieces into cracker size.
Some times the keto cheese cracker “squares” come out as rounds, they’ll still taste the same. We trimmed the cooked cheese crackers into cute little squares to resemble Cheez-its.
To make in an air fryer – lay parchment at. the bottom of the air fryer. Cut the thinly sliced cheese into squares and place on top of the parchment paper. Air fry to cheese slices on 320 F for 10 minutes until crispy.
