Cottage Cheese Flatbread
Cottage cheese and eggs blended and baked into a soft, high-protein flatbread — the viral two-ingredient base for wraps, pizzas, and dipping.
Ingredients
- 250 g Cottage cheese
- 2 Egg
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Garlic powder (optional)
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional)
- ½ tsp Dried oregano (optional)
Method
- Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Blitz the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, and salt into a smooth, pourable batter.
- Pour the batter into one thin, even rectangle on the lined sheet and scatter the sesame seeds and oregano over.
- Bake until firm and dry to the touch and golden at the edges, about 35 minutes — it must set fully or it stays floppy.
- Let the flatbread cool completely on the parchment before peeling it off, then cut and serve.

About Cottage Cheese Flatbread
Cottage cheese flatbread is a modern reinvention of the traditional savoury flatbread, stripped down to its essence and made lean. Unlike most flatbreads that rely on yeast dough or thick batters, this version uses cottage cheese and egg to build structure, creating a bake that emerges tender and slightly floppy before it sets firm and crisps at the edges. The curdled texture of cottage cheese becomes invisible when fully blitzed, leaving behind only its moisture and protein, which bind with the egg to form a stable, pourable base.
What makes this flatbread worth baking is its speed and versatility—forty-five minutes from oven to table, no kneading, no rise time. The golden, thin sheet is sturdy enough to hold toppings and dip but tender enough to fold without cracking, making it an ideal vehicle for everything from scrambled eggs and smoked salmon at breakfast to cheese and pesto at lunch, or torn into chips for spreads and dips. Sesame seeds and oregano toast into the surface, adding flavour and texture without extra effort.
