Ingredients
2 large Eggs
1 cup Shredded mozzarella or low-moisture cheese
2 tbsp Cream cheese, softened
1/4 tsp Garlic powder (optional)
1/4 tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano (optional)
1 pinch Salt
1 tbsp Butter or olive oil (for cooking)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Melt Cheeses: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and softened cream cheese. Microwave for 30 to 45 seconds until melted and smooth, stirring halfway through.
2. Whisk Eggs & Seasoning: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt.
3. Combine & Mix: Slowly add the egg mixture into the melted cheese, stirring quickly and thoroughly with a fork or spatula until a uniform, dough-like batter forms.
4. Pan-Fry or Bake:
Stovetop Method: Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour a portion of the batter into the pan and spread into a thin round circle. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and set.
Oven Method: Spread batter into round flatbread shapes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10 to 12 minutes until golden.
5. Cool & Serve: Allow the flatbreads to cool for 2 to 3 minutes to firm up before tearing, wrapping, or serving!
Chef’s Tips
Low Heat is Crucial: When pan-frying, keep the heat on medium-low so the cheese browns evenly without burning before the egg sets.
Add Dried Herbs: Garlic powder, onion powder, and dried basil elevate the flavor profile, making it taste like fresh garlic naan or focaccia!
