Cottage Cheese Flatbread
A quick and protein-rich flatbread made from cottage cheese, oat flour, and eggs, perfect for breakfast or snacks.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese Use full-fat or low-fat; drain if very watery.
- 1 cup oat flour Use certified gluten-free if needed.
- 2 pieces eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Salt to taste Salt, to taste (start with 1/4–1/2 teaspoon)
- for frying Olive oil For frying.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, oat flour, eggs, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until a cohesive dough forms — it should be slightly sticky but workable.
- If the dough is too loose, add a tablespoon of oat flour at a time.
Cooking
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil to coat the surface.
- Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions, shape each portion into a ball, then flatten into rounds about 1/4–1/3 inch thick.
- Place the rounds in the preheated skillet and cook for about 3–4 minutes per side until golden-brown spots and slightly crisp edges form.
- Transfer cooked flatbreads to a wire rack or plate. Serve warm.
Notes
If your cottage cheese is very lumpy, pulse it briefly in a blender for a smoother dough. For a denser flatbread, let the mixed dough rest 5–10 minutes. You can swap toast with these flatbreads for breakfast. They can also be paired with various toppings like hummus, roasted vegetables, or scrambled eggs.
