What’s in This High Protein Cottage Cheese Flatbread?

This flatbread is made with a blend of cottage cheese, eggs, and a bit of flour (or a low-carb alternative) to create a soft, chewy texture with a slight crisp on the edges. Cottage cheese adds a boost of protein and makes the flatbread extra tender. Whether you’re following a high-protein diet or just looking for a nutritious alternative to store-bought bread, this is a fantastic option.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this easy, protein-packed flatbread:

1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup flour (all-purpose, whole wheat, or almond flour for a low-carb option)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or basil (optional)
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

How to Make High-Protein Cottage Cheese Flatbread

Step 1: Blend the Ingredients

In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and herbs. Blend until you get a smooth batter with no lumps.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 3: Cook the Flatbread

Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan and spread it into a thin, round shape using the back of a spoon. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges look set and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.

Step 4: Repeat and Serve

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed. Once done, serve warm with your favorite toppings or dips.
