Cottage Cheese Flatbread
A healthy, high-protein flatbread made with cottage cheese, eggs, and your choice of flour. Perfect for low-carb, gluten-free, or high-protein diets. Use it as a wrap, pizza base, or side for soups and dips!
Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup cottage cheese (blended until smooth)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup flour (all-purpose, almond, or whole wheat)
- 1 tsp baking powder
Optional Additions:
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for moisture)
- 1 tsp garlic powder (for flavor)
- 1 tsp dried herbs (e.g., rosemary, thyme, or oregano)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
Prepare the Dough:
- Blend the cottage cheese until smooth to remove lumps.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, flour, and baking powder. Mix until a slightly sticky dough forms.
- Adjust consistency: Add a bit more flour if too sticky or a teaspoon of water or olive oil if too dry.
Shape the Flatbread:
- Divide the dough into small balls.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a thin, round flatbread.
Cook the Flatbread:
- Skillet Method: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Brush with olive oil or butter for extra flavor.
- Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place flatbread on a lined baking sheet and bake for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway. For crispiness, broil for an additional minute.
Serve & Enjoy:
- Serve warm with dips, as a wrap, or as a pizza base.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for 2–3 days or freeze for later use.
Notes
- Pro Tip: For a crispier texture, roll the dough thinner and cook in a hot skillet with olive oil.
