Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread Batter
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 2 large eggs
- 1½ cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Cooking
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (plus extra for cooking)
Instructions
- Prepare Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese and eggs until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a creamy base for the flatbread.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until a thick batter forms that holds shape when scooped.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with olive oil to prevent sticking and aid browning.
- Cook First Side: Scoop approximately ¼ cup of batter into the skillet, spreading it into a round flatbread shape. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
- Flip and Cook Second Side: Carefully flip the flatbread using a spatula and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes until fully cooked through and golden.
- Repeat and Serve: Continue cooking remaining batter in batches, adding olive oil as needed to the skillet. Serve the flatbreads warm for best texture and flavor.
