Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cottage Cheese (low-sodium recommended)
  • 2 large Whole Eggs (or 4 egg whites for a lighter version)

Seasonings

  • Garlic Powder (to taste)
  • Italian Seasoning (to taste)
  • Oregano (optional, for sprinkling before baking)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C). Make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Combine the cottage cheese and eggs in a food processor or blender and blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Seasonings: Sprinkle in garlic powder and Italian seasoning, then blend briefly again to evenly incorporate the flavors into the batter.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a quarter baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  5. Spread Mixture: Pour the blended mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly to form a flat layer.
  6. Add Optional Toppings: Optionally, sprinkle oregano or any additional seasonings on top to enhance aroma and flavor.
  7. Bake Flatbread: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, keeping an eye on the edges for light browning indicating doneness.
  8. Cool and Slice: Once baked, let the flatbread cool for 10 minutes, then carefully peel it off the parchment paper and cut it into slices to serve.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, replace whole eggs with egg whites.
  • Using low-sodium cottage cheese helps reduce overall salt content.
  • The flatbread can be topped with your favorite herbs or spices before baking to customize flavors.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • This flatbread works well as a base for sandwiches, pizzas, or can be enjoyed on its own.
