Scale
Main Protein and Dairy:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) grated Parmesan cheese
Seasonings and Spices:
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Optional Toppings:
- Fresh herbs

Instructions
- Prepare the baking workspace by lining a sheet with parchment paper and warming the oven to 350F (175C), ensuring an even cooking environment.
- Combine cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan, garlic powder, and salt in a blender, processing until the mixture transforms into a silky, uniform consistency.
- Transfer the blended mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, carefully spreading it into a uniform circular or rectangular shape, maintaining a consistent thickness of approximately 1/4-inch.
- Optional: Enhance the flavor profile by delicately sprinkling selected herbs or seasonings across the surface of the flatbread mixture.
- Position the baking sheet in the preheated oven, allowing the flatbread to cook for 25-30 minutes until the edges turn golden and the center becomes completely set.
- Remove from the oven and permit the flatbread to cool slightly, enabling easier removal from the baking surface.
- Once cooled, detach the flatbread from the parchment paper, preparing it for versatile use as a wrap, base for mini pizzas, or standalone flatbread.
Notes
- Experiment with different types of cottage cheese to find the creamiest, most flavorful option for your flatbread base.
- Use a rubber spatula to spread the mixture evenly, ensuring a thin, crisp texture that mimics traditional flatbread.
- For a gluten-free version, double-check that all ingredients are certified gluten-free, especially the Parmesan cheese.
- Transform this versatile flatbread into a low-carb alternative by topping with fresh herbs, roasted vegetables, or lean proteins for a nutritious meal.
