Ingredients
Scale
Basic Dough Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup oat flour (or almond flour for a lower-carb version)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Optional Flavor Enhancers
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional, for extra softness)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder or Italian seasoning (optional, for flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Blend Cottage Cheese: Place the cottage cheese in a food processor or blender and blend until it becomes smooth and creamy to ensure a uniform dough texture.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, blended cottage cheese, and olive oil if using. Add the oat flour, baking powder, salt, and optional garlic powder or Italian seasoning. Stir until a soft dough forms.
- Shape the Dough: Divide the dough into 2 to 3 equal portions. Roll each portion on floured parchment paper into thin oval shapes, ensuring an even thickness for uniform baking.
- Bake: Transfer the shaped dough directly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the flatbreads to cool slightly before using. Enjoy them warm as wraps, pizza crusts, or dippers for soups and spreads.
Notes
- You can substitute oat flour with almond flour to reduce carbohydrates.
- Olive oil is optional but adds softness and richness to the flatbread.
- Feel free to customize seasoning with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or herbs of your choice for extra flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently before serving.
- This flatbread freezes well; thaw and warm before use.
