Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240 grams) cottage cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup almond flour
Flour Alternatives:
- 1 cup oat flour (non-keto option)
Seasonings and Leavening Agents:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Combine cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and seasonings in a food processor or blender.
- Pulse ingredients until the mixture transforms into a smooth, uniform consistency with no visible lumps.
- Warm a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat (around 325°F), ensuring even surface temperature.
- Lightly coat the cooking surface with a thin layer of butter or olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Ladle approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated surface, using the back of a spoon to spread into a thin, circular shape.
- Allow the flatbread to cook for 2-3 minutes until edges become golden and bubbles form across the surface.
- Carefully flip the flatbread and cook the opposite side for an additional 1-2 minutes until evenly browned and set.
- Repeat the process with remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Stack cooked flatbreads on a plate, keeping them warm by covering with a clean kitchen towel.
- Serve immediately as a versatile base for wraps, mini pizzas, sandwich alternatives, or as a dipping companion for hummus and soups.
Notes
- Select cold cottage cheese for smoother blending and optimal texture, ensuring ingredients mix evenly without lumps.
- Adjust heat carefully to prevent burning, keeping flame medium-low for gentle, consistent cooking that develops golden edges.
- Use a silicone spatula to spread batter thinly and evenly, creating crisp, uniform flatbreads with consistent thickness.
- Consider adding herbs like dried basil, oregano, or garlic powder to enhance flavor profile and create versatile base for various cuisines.
