How to make this jalapeno cheese crisps recipe

On a baking sheet, sprinkle a generous pinch of shredded cheddar cheese, about 3” apart.
For easier cleanup, you can line the baking tray with parchment paper.
I like sharp cheddar for this recipe, but medium cheddar works as well.
Slice the jalapeno into thin slices.
On top of each of the piles of cheese, drop one of your jalapeno slices.
Feel free to sprinkle some parmesan cheese on top prior to popping these in the oven.
Bake at 400 degrees for 6 to 9 minutes, until the edges of the keto cheese chips look crispy.
