Description
A delightful blend of flavor and texture, this Cottage Cheese Flatbread is soft, chewy, and has a subtle tang from the cottage cheese. It’s perfect for any occasion and a healthier alternative to traditional flatbreads.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (240 grams)
- 1 cup cottage cheese (240 grams)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (5 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (3 grams)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs (optional, such as parsley, chives, or dill)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Add the cottage cheese and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Use a fork or your hands to mix until the dough starts to come together. If using fresh herbs, fold them into the mixture at this stage.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for about 1-2 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly elastic.
- Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.
- After resting, divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a circle or oval shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each rolled-out flatbread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and blistered.
Notes
- Store leftover flatbreads in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- For longer storage, refrigerate or freeze wrapped in plastic wrap.
- To reheat, warm in a skillet for a few minutes.
