Equipment

  • Oven
  • Small rectangular baking tray
  • Baking paper
  • Oil spray
  • Food processor or blender
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 225 g cottage cheese (full-fat)
  • 2 large eggs (in the U.S., use XL eggs)
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning (or seasoning of choice, see notes)
  • 0.25 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) or 160°C fan. Line a small rectangular baking tray with baking paper. Spray it lightly with oil and press the paper flat into the tray to avoid wrinkles.
  • In a food processor or blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Blend until the mixture is smooth and slightly runny.
  • Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking tray and use a spatula to spread it evenly into your desired shape. A rectangle works well for cutting into halves, but a circular shape is also an option.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. The flatbread should puff up slightly and turn golden brown around the edges—don’t let it go too dark.
  • Once baked, allow the flatbread to cool on the tray for about 15 minutes. This helps firm up its texture and makes it easier to handle.
  • Cut the flatbread in half (or into smaller shapes if desired) and serve as is or with your favorite toppings or fillings.
