Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread
- 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese (room temperature preferred)
- 1 large egg (room temperature preferred)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for non-stick baking.
- Blend Ingredients: Add the cottage cheese and egg to a blender or food processor. Blend for 30 to 60 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth with no visible curds, ensuring a uniform batter.
- Shape Flatbread: Pour the smooth mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a spatula, spread it into an 8 to 10 inch circle about ¼ inch thick to form the flatbread shape.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the center feels set to the touch, indicating it is cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the flatbread cool for 2 to 3 minutes before adding any toppings or slicing. This helps prevent toppings from sliding off.
Notes
- Use full-fat cottage cheese for the best texture and flavor.
- Let the cottage cheese come to room temperature for a fluffier flatbread.
- You can add ⅛ teaspoon baking powder to the mixture for extra lift, if desired.
- Store the flatbread in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months for convenience.
