Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat depending on preference)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour for a healthier twist
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Optional herbs and spices: garlic powder, black pepper, fresh herbs (parsley, chives)
- Additional toppings like cherry tomatoes, spinach, or feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a sticky dough forms. Adjust with more flour or water as needed.
- Divide the dough into 4-6 portions. Shape each into a ball, then flatten into a thin round using a rolling pin or your hands.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly brush with olive oil. Cook each flatbread for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Optional: During cooking, sprinkle herbs or garlic powder for extra flavor.
- Serve warm with toppings like fresh vegetables, hummus, or a drizzle of olive oil. Cut into wedges if desired.
Notes
- Use full-fat cottage cheese for richer flavor or low-fat for a healthier option.
- Enhance flavor with herbs and spices of your choice.
- For a crispy crust, brush the flatbread with olive oil before cooking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet or oven.
