Description
A high-protein, low-carb, and gluten-free flatbread made in the blender with cottage cheese and almond flour. It is crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and ready in just 15 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (225g) full-fat small-curd cottage cheese
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons (25g) super-fine almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning (plus more for topping)
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Pinch of garlic powder (optional)
- Oil or butter for greasing/brushing
Instructions
- Add cottage cheese and egg to a blender. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until completely smooth with no visible curds.
- Pour the smooth mixture into a medium bowl. Add almond flour, baking powder, and 1 tablespoon of everything seasoning. Stir with a spatula until combined into a thick, sticky batter.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the dough ball onto the parchment. Wet your hands slightly and press the dough into an 8-inch circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Brush the top lightly with olive oil or melted butter. Sprinkle generously with remaining everything seasoning and press seeds gently into the dough.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden brown and the top looks set. Optionally broil for 1-2 minutes for extra crispiness, watching closely.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the pan for 5 minutes to firm up before slicing.
Notes
Blend cottage cheese until completely smooth to avoid weird textures. Use parchment paper to prevent sticking as almond flour is sticky. Wet hands when shaping the dough. Ovens vary, so check at 12 minutes. Can be stored in the fridge for 4 days or frozen for 2 months. Reheat in a toaster oven or regular oven to restore crispiness.
