Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Arrange the parmesan cheese into little piles on the baking sheet. Each cheese pile should be approximately 2 tbsp of cheese and 2–3" apart from other piles.
Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning onto each parmesan cheese mound. (This is optional—the crisps are also delicious plain!)
Bake for 6–8 minutes until the cheese crisps are flat, crispy, and golden on the edges.
Remove crisps from the oven and allow the cheese crisps to cool before removing from baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up for a few minutes after being removed from the oven.
Notes
This recipe was created using real Parmesan cheese that we shredded. The grated Parmesan that you buy in the the shaker cans will not work for this recipe. Some pre-shedded cheese are also mixed with anti-caking ingredients to keep them from sticking, which means they will not melt well either. Feel free to experiment with your favorite brands, but know that the best results will come from real parmesan cheese with no added fillers.
