Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat for a richer texture, or low-fat for a lighter option)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Optional:
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes for a spicy kick
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Blend the ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare the batter: Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking tray. Use a spatula to spread it evenly into a thin layer.
- Add extra flavor: If desired, sprinkle fresh herbs, grated parmesan, or chili flakes on top for extra taste and texture.
- Bake: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Cool and slice: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Cut the flatbread into squares, strips, or circles depending on your desired use.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve warm as a wrap, pizza base, or dipper for hummus and guacamole.
Notes
- Variations: Add Italian seasoning, rosemary, or thyme for extra depth of flavor.
- Dairy-Free Option: Substitute dairy-free cottage cheese and add a tablespoon of flaxseed meal to help bind the ingredients.
- Serving Suggestions: Use as a pizza base topped with tomato sauce, cheese, and veggies, or as a wrap for grilled chicken and fresh veggies.
