Cottage Cheese Flatbread Recipe
This Cottage Cheese Flatbread is a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional flatbreads. Perfect as a snack or for serving with dips, this recipe combines the creaminess of cottage cheese with simple ingredients to create a soft, versatile flatbread.
Equipment
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 rolling pin
- 1 non-stick skillet or frying pan
- 1 measuring cups and spoons
- 1 spatula
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil Plus more for cooking.
- herbs for seasoning (optional) e.g., oregano, basil.
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, flour, egg, salt, and baking powder. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Knead for about 1 minute until smooth.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.
- Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a flat round shape about ¼ inch thick.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add ½ tablespoon of olive oil to the pan.
- Cook one flatbread at a time for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads, adding more oil as needed.
- Optionally, sprinkle herbs over the flatbreads while cooking to enhance the flavor.
- Serve warm as a snack or with your choice of dip.
