Ingredients
Flatbread Ingredients
- 1/2 cup full fat cottage cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
- Oregano, to sprinkle
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350ºF (177ºC). This ensures the oven reaches the right temperature for baking the flatbread evenly.
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, and onion powder. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth to create a uniform batter without lumps.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Pour the blended batter onto the pan, spreading it out evenly into a flat, thin layer.
- Sprinkle Oregano: Evenly sprinkle oregano on top of the batter to add herbal flavor and a bit of aroma to the flatbread before baking.
- Bake Flatbread: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-40 minutes until the flatbread is set and slightly golden around the edges, adjusting the time based on your oven’s strength.
- Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the flatbread rest for 5 minutes. Use it as a wrap or a pizza base, enjoying it warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a crisper crust, extend baking time slightly while watching closely to prevent burning.
- Optional garlic and onion powders enhance flavor but can be omitted for a milder taste.
- Use parchment paper and cooking spray to avoid sticking and ease removal.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and reheat gently before serving.
- Feel free to add herbs or spices of your choice to customize the flavor.
