Ingredients
  

Flatbread Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably low-fat) Can use low-fat or regular cottage cheese.
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for a healthier option) Whole wheat flour can add extra nutrition.
  • 1 large egg For a vegan version, substitute with a flaxseed meal mixture.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Optional spices: garlic powder, onion powder, or herbs like oregano Add for flavor enhancement.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine the cottage cheese, flour, egg, salt, and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Blend until a smooth dough forms.
  2. If the dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour to achieve the right consistency.
Cooking
  1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
  2. Take a handful of dough and flatten it into a round shape, about a quarter-inch thick.
  3. Place the flattened dough on the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  4. Ensure the flatbread is soft yet slightly crisp when done.
