Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for a low-carb option)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional herbs and spices: garlic powder, oregano, parsley
- Olive oil or cooking spray for frying
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, egg, and flour. Mix until smooth.
- Add baking powder, salt, pepper, and herbs if using. Knead lightly to incorporate all ingredients.
- Divide dough into smaller portions and roll into balls. Flatten each into an even circle about ¼ inch thick.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with olive oil or cooking spray.
- Cook each flatbread for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown, flipping carefully with a spatula.
- Optional: Transfer to a baking sheet and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes for extra crispiness.
Notes
- Using almond flour creates a gluten-free version, but texture may vary slightly.
- Add chopped herbs or spices directly into the dough for more flavor.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
