Cottage Cheese Flatbread Recipe
Just a couple of simple base ingredients with a sprinkle of this and a dash of that. Around 28g of protein per flatbread. Wow.
Equipment
1 large baking sheet Like a large ceramic non-toxic sheet like this one
1 baking paper Preformed rectangular baking sheets are very convenient
1 food or smoothie blender or processor I love using Ninja Contertop Blender
Ingredients
- 2 cups Low-fat or full-fat cottage cheese (approx 400g or 14oz) (it doesn't matter as most cottage cheese is relatively low in fat anyway)
- 4 Medium size eggs Or eggwhites if you want to make it extra lean
- 1 tsp Oregano or Italian herbs Optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 330°F (165°C). A hot oven is essential for achieving a crispy crust. But you don't want it so high that it burns.
- In a food processor or using an immersion blender, blend the cottage cheese together with eggs until smooth. You can add your optional herbs to the blender too.
- Pour gently onto the baking sheet/tray and make sure you have enough room for them to spread out. They will spread alot as they will be quiet runny. To get 2 x 10 inch flatbreads, they should be around 0.2 inches thick.
- Bake the flatbreads for 15-20 minutes or until they turn a golden brown color. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning. You don't need to flip them, and it's ok if the underside is pale, this can be the inner side of the wrap.
- Once baked, let them cool a bit and flip them on to a plate, browned side down and gently peel away the baking paper from the bottom side of the cottage cheese flatbread.
- Now you can fill it with any fillings you like, check out a couple of opitions below.
