Ingredients

Scale

Cheese and Dairy

1 cup cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Vegetables and Seasonings

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan. Add the chopped spinach, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt, stirring until the mixture is thoroughly blended and uniform.
Form the Crisps: Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and place them on the prepared baking sheet spaced about 2 inches apart. Flatten each portion slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to help them crisp up evenly during baking.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the crisps for 10 to 12 minutes. Watch for a light golden brown color around the edges, indicating crispiness. Rotate the tray halfway through baking to promote even cooking.
Cool and Serve: Remove the crisps from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature as a savory snack or appetizer.

Notes

For extra crispiness, make sure to flatten the crisps evenly before baking.
Feel free to add other herbs like oregano or parsley for added flavor.
These crisps reheat well in the oven or air fryer to regain their crunch.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Use fresh spinach and ensure it is well drained before mixing to avoid sogginess.
