How to Make Cottage Cheese Flatbread
I’m so excited to share this no-fail recipe for cottage cheese flatbread with you! It’s soft, flavorful, and so easy to make. I’ll guide you through simple, step-by-step instructions to ensure it turns out perfectly every time. Whether you’re a seasoned cook or a beginner, this recipe is foolproof and delicious! Let’s get started!
Blend Your Flatbread Mixture
In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, egg, and seasonings. Blend until smooth and creamy. This will be your flatbread base, so ensure it’s well-mixed for even baking.
Prepare the Baking Tray
Line a baking tray with parchment paper. To avoid sticking, generously brush the parchment with olive oil. This simple step makes all the difference when removing the flatbread later.
Bake Until Golden Brown
Pour the blended mixture onto the parchment paper and spread it evenly into a thin layer. Bake at a low temperature for 25 minutes or until it turns golden brown. This is crucial—if it’s not golden brown, the flatbread may break when you fold it.
Prep and Add Your Toppings
While the flatbread is baking, get your toppings ready. Slice the tomatoes, onions, and spinach, and drain the tuna. Once baked, let the flatbread cool slightly, then spread green pesto on one half. Add spinach, tuna, onions, tomatoes, or any of your favorite toppings.
Fold and Serve
Carefully fold the flatbread into a wrap, securing all the toppings inside. Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious, healthy creation!
tips to Nail Flatbread Every Time
Blend well: A smooth mixture ensures even baking.
Don’t skip the olive oil: Brushing the parchment paper prevents sticking and makes removing the flatbread effortless.
Bake it golden brown: The flatbread needs to develop a sturdy crust to avoid breaking when folding.
Customize your toppings: Swap tuna for chicken, smoked salmon, or a plant-based protein for variety.
