Ingredients
Flatbread Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
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.
- Blend the ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese and eggs. Blend until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps, ensuring a uniform batter.
- Shape the flatbread: Pour the blended mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it evenly into your desired shape – round or rectangular – about ¼-inch thick for even baking.
- Bake the flatbread: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the center is fully set, indicating it is cooked through.
- Cool and serve: Allow the flatbread to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. This resting time helps it firm up, making it easier to slice or serve as a base for toppings or dipping.
Notes
- Use full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese depending on your preference; it will slightly affect texture and nutritional values.
- Make sure not to make the flatbread too thick for even cooking; about ¼-inch thickness is ideal.
- You can add herbs or spices to the batter for additional flavor, such as garlic powder, dried oregano, or finely chopped chives.
- This flatbread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
- For a crispier texture, you can broil the flatbread for 1-2 minutes at the end but watch closely to avoid burning.
