These Pesto Parmesan Chips are perfect for a fun and delicious appetizer!
I’m not gonna lie, these Pesto Parmesan Chips are pretty delicious! And, if you eat them all in one sitting it will be like eating 2 cups of cheese all by yourself, but they’re so good that you’ll soon forget about the fact that you ate 2 cups of cheese 🙂
These chips are so easy that I’m a little surprised I didn’t think to make them before now. I could eat chips all day long and pesto is one of my favorite things to make.
These days it seems like you can pretty much make pesto out of anything and it’s such a great topping for pastas, salads and yummy bowls. I always have a soft spot in my heart for traditional basil pesto and that is what I used in these chips, but you can use any kind of pesto you like.
These Pesto Parmesan Chips will be the perfect for your next wine and cheese party or just for a delicious snack! You might want to make more than one batch though, because they won’t last long 🙂
Print2 Ingredient Pesto Parmesan Chips
- Yield: 22 Chips 1x
Description
These delicious chips are so easy to make!
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup pesto
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F. Add the parmesan cheese and pesto to a medium sized bowl and mix together until combined. You may have to use your hands to get the pesto completely mixed in.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the mixture onto the parchment paper and flatten into a round shape with your hands. Repeat with the remaining cheese mixture. You will probably have to cook in batches.
- Bake chips until cheese is melted and outsides are just starting to turn brown, 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool until chips are hardened, about 10 minutes.
Notes
Cheese and pesto are both greasy foods when melted together, so feel free to dab the chips with a paper towel once they’ve cooled.

I made some home made pesto and Googled to find a snack to use the last of it up. This was simple and quick. The only trouble is they are very moorish!!!!

Can they be made ahead and stored? I am having a big party and want to make them a few days before.

Hi Eden, I think that would be ok. I would just leave them at room temperature for about 1/2 hour before serving them so they’re not cold 🙂
