Ingredients
1 cup Full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese
2 large Eggs
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano
Pinch of salt (to taste)
1 tbsp Melted butter (optional, for brushing top)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prep Oven & Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Blend Batter: In a high-speed blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Blend until smooth and completely liquid.
3. Spread Batter: Pour the mixture onto the prepared parchment paper and spread it evenly into two flat rounds (or one large rectangle) using a spatula.
4. Bake: Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center feels set and firm to the touch.
5. Cool & Brush: Remove from the oven. Brush lightly with melted butter for extra flavor, let cool for 5 minutes, then peel gently off the parchment paper and serve!
Chef’s Tips
Use Parchment Paper: Don’t bake directly on aluminum foil or a bare sheet—parchment paper allows the flatbread to peel off effortlessly.
Stovetop Option: You can also cook smaller portions in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat with a lid until set and lightly browned on both sides.
