Ingredients

Units Scale

Cottage Cheese Base

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat, low-fat, or fat-free)
  • 2 large eggs

Seasonings

  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

For Baking

  • Cooking spray (for baking sheet)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven – Set your oven to 350°F (176°C) to prepare for baking the flatbread, allowing it to reach the correct temperature while you prepare the batter.
  2. Blend Ingredients – In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese and eggs. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, ensuring no lumps remain for the best flatbread texture.
  3. Add Seasonings – Add garlic powder and Italian seasoning to the blended mixture. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors throughout the batter.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet – Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking oil to prevent the flatbread from sticking.
  5. Spread Mixture – Pour the cottage cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, and use a spatula to spread it evenly into a thin layer for uniform baking.
  6. Bake – Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  7. Cool and Remove – Allow the flatbread to cool completely before carefully peeling it away from the parchment paper. This helps it firm up and prevents breaking.
  8. Serve – Use the flatbread as a wrap, pizza crust, or substitute for pita bread. Enjoy as desired or store for later use.

Notes

  • For a thicker and chewier flatbread, bake for up to 50 minutes.
  • If you prefer thin wraps, check the flatbread at 25-30 minutes to avoid overbaking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze flatbread between layers of parchment paper for up to one month.
  • Reheat in a dry pan or oven at 350°F for a crispier texture before serving.
