Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray.

Add the cottage cheese, eggs, salt, and dried oregano to a blender. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth with no visible curds remaining.

Pour the blended mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently tilt the pan if needed so the batter spreads into an even, flat layer.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Once baked, remove the flatbread from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the pan. This cooling step is essential for the flatbread to set properly and hold together when used as a wrap.

Once fully cooled, carefully peel it away from the parchment paper and use as desired.

Variations

For a herby version, add dried basil, thyme, or Italian seasoning to the batter.
For a spicy twist, blend in a pinch of chili flakes or smoked paprika.

Storage/Reheating

Store leftover flatbread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To prevent sticking, place parchment paper between layers.

To reheat, warm it gently in a nonstick pan over low heat or in the oven at 300°F (150°C) until just heated through. Avoid overheating, as this can dry it out.

FAQs

Can I taste the cottage cheese in the flatbread?

Once blended and baked, the cottage cheese flavor is very mild and neutral, making it easy to pair with both savory and lightly seasoned fillings.

Does the type of cottage cheese matter?

Yes, the texture and protein content can vary. Full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese both work, but very watery cottage cheese may result in a softer flatbread.

Why does the flatbread need to cool completely?

Cooling allows the structure to set. Skipping this step can cause the flatbread to tear or fall apart when handled.

Can I make this recipe without a blender?

A blender or food processor is strongly recommended to achieve a smooth batter. Mixing by hand will leave curds and affect the texture.

Is this flatbread gluten-free?

Yes, this recipe contains no flour or grains, making it naturally gluten-free.

Can I use this flatbread for sandwiches?

Absolutely. It works well as a wrap for sandwiches, grilled fillings, or fresh vegetables.

How much protein does this flatbread contain?

Depending on the cottage cheese used, it generally contains between 40 and 50 grams of protein for the whole flatbread.

Can I double the recipe?

Yes, you can double the ingredients and bake on a larger sheet pan or in two separate batches for even cooking.

What should I do if my flatbread sticks to the parchment?

Make sure the parchment is well sprayed before baking, and allow the flatbread to cool fully before peeling it off.

Can I freeze this flatbread?

Yes, wrap it tightly and freeze for up to one month. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
