Breakfast Snack

2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Flatbread

I never thought a flatbread made from just two ingredients could turn out so good—until I tried this cottage cheese flatbread. One afternoon, I was craving something light yet satisfying, but my pantry was looking pretty bare.

That’s when I spotted a tub of cottage cheese and a carton of eggs. Could they work together to create something bread-like? I had my doubts, but I went for it.

The process was almost too easy—blend, bake, and boom! The result? A golden, slightly crisp flatbread with a soft, chewy center. The mild tang of cottage cheese gave it just enough flavor to stand on its own, but it was also neutral enough to pair with anything.

I used it as a wrap, a pizza base, and even toasted it for a crunchy snack. If you love simple, protein-packed recipes, this one’s going to be a game-changer in your kitchen.

Short Description

This 2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Flatbread is a high-protein, low-carb alternative to traditional bread. It’s light, soft, and versatile—perfect for wraps, sandwiches, or even as a pizza crust. Quick to make and packed with flavor!

Key Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • Optional seasonings: Garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs, salt, and pepper

Tools Needed

  • Blender or food processor
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Spatula

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.

Step 2: Blend the Ingredients

In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and any seasonings you’d like to add.

Blend until the mixture is completely smooth—it should resemble a thin pancake batter. If your cottage cheese is extra thick, blend a little longer to ensure a lump-free texture.

Step 3: Pour and Spread

Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly into your desired shape—rectangular for sandwich slices or circular for a pizza-style flatbread. Keep it about ¼ inch thick to ensure even baking.

Step 4: Bake

Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25–35 minutes. The flatbread is done when the edges turn golden brown, and the center feels firm to the touch. If you prefer a crispier texture, bake for an extra 5 minutes.

Step 5: Cool and Serve

Remove from the oven and let the flatbread cool for 5 minutes before slicing or using. This helps it firm up for easier handling. Enjoy warm or let it cool completely for a sturdier texture.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Simple & Quick: Only two main ingredients and minimal prep.

Healthy & High-Protein: Packed with protein from cottage cheese and eggs.

Low-Carb & Gluten-Free: A perfect alternative for bread lovers on a low-carb diet.

Versatile: Use it as a wrap, sandwich base, or even a pizza crust!

Mistakes to Avoid & Solutions

1. Not Blending Smoothly

If the mixture is lumpy, the flatbread won’t bake evenly. Make sure to blend until completely smooth.

2. Spreading Too Thin or Too Thick

If it’s too thin, it may turn crispy like a cracker. If too thick, it may be too soft. Aim for ¼-inch thickness.

3. Overbaking or Underbaking

Start checking at 25 minutes. If the edges are browning but the center is still soft, bake for 5-10 more minutes.

4. Not Letting It Cool

Cutting too soon can make it fall apart. Let it rest for at least 5 minutes.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

Wrap it up: Use it for sandwich wraps with turkey, avocado, and veggies.

Pizza base: Top with marinara, cheese, and your favorite toppings.

Toast & dip: Cut into strips and serve with hummus or guacamole.

Breakfast boost: Spread with peanut butter and banana slices.

Side dish: Pair it with soups, salads, or grilled meats.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Refrigeration: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Freezing: Freeze in layers between parchment paper for up to 2 months.

Reheating: Warm in a skillet for 2–3 minutes or toast for extra crispiness. Avoid microwaving, as it can make it too soft.

FAQs

1. Can I make this without a blender?
Yes! Mash the cottage cheese with a fork until smooth, then whisk it well with the eggs.

2. Is this flatbread crispy or soft?
It has a soft, pliable texture, but you can bake it longer for extra crispiness.

3. Can I add other ingredients?
Absolutely! Try parmesan, shredded cheese, or finely chopped spinach for extra flavor.

4. How can I make it thicker like naan?
Pour the batter into a smaller pan and bake slightly longer for a thicker, chewier bread.

5. Does it taste like eggs?
Not much! The cottage cheese gives it a mild, slightly tangy flavor that balances out the egg.

Tips & Tricks

– For a crispier edge, spray the parchment paper with oil before baking.
– Season generously for more flavor—herbs and spices work wonders.
– Use a non-stick pan if baking directly without parchment paper.
– For even thickness, tilt the baking sheet slightly after pouring the batter.

Recipe Variations

1. Cheesy Herb Flatbread

Add ¼ cup grated parmesan and 1 tsp Italian seasoning before blending.

Follow the same baking instructions for a rich, flavorful twist.

2. Garlic Butter Flatbread

After baking, brush with melted butter and minced garlic.

Return to the oven for 5 more minutes for a golden, buttery finish.

3. Spicy Jalapeño Flatbread

Blend in ½ teaspoon chili flakes and ¼ cup chopped jalapeños.

Great for serving with Mexican-inspired dishes!

4. Sweet Cinnamon Flatbread

Add 1 tsp cinnamon and 1 tbsp honey to the batter.

Bake as directed and serve with yogurt or fruit.
