Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup oat flour (or almond flour for a lower-carb option)
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional, for extra softness)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder or Italian seasoning (optional, for added flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking during baking.
  2. Blend the Cottage Cheese: Using a food processor or blender, blend the cottage cheese until smooth. This creates a consistent, creamy texture in the dough and helps the ingredients bind well.
  3. Mix the Dough: In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, blended cottage cheese, and olive oil together until fully combined. Add oat flour, baking powder, salt, and optional seasonings, then stir until a soft, cohesive dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, add a bit more flour until manageable.
  4. Shape the Flatbread: Divide the dough into 2-3 equal portions depending on desired flatbread size. On a lightly floured surface with parchment paper, roll each portion into a thin oval shape, approximately ¼ inch thick. Transfer each shaped portion carefully onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake the Flatbread: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the flatbreads for 15-18 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the flatbreads are cooked through.
  6. Enjoy: Remove from oven and let cool slightly for a few minutes. Serve warm as a wrap, pizza base, or as dippers for hummus or soups. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness for later use.

Notes

  • Using almond flour instead of oat flour reduces carbohydrates and makes the flatbread lower-carb.
  • Full-fat cottage cheese adds extra richness and creaminess, but low-fat works as well to reduce calories.
  • You can adjust the thickness of flatbread by rolling thinner for crispier or thicker for softer texture.
  • Seasonings like garlic powder or Italian herbs enhance flavor but can be omitted for a plain base.
  • Store flatbread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat flatbread in a toaster or oven for a crisp texture before serving.
