Flatbread Ingredients
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese (Ensure it’s not too watery)
- 2 large Eggs (Serves as a binder)
- 1 pinch Salt (Optional, can be omitted for a true 2-ingredient experience)
- To taste Herbs/Spices (Consider oregano or thyme for added flavor)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and eggs thoroughly until well mixed. If desired, add a pinch of salt and your preferred herbs or spices such as oregano or thyme to enhance the flavor. Mix until you achieve a smooth batter consistency.
- Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Ensure the pan is hot before adding the batter to prevent sticking and to promote even cooking.
- Cook the Flatbreads: Pour or spoon the batter onto the preheated skillet, shaping it gently into flat, round shapes about 1/4 inch thick. Cook on medium heat for approximately 7-8 minutes until the underside is golden and firm enough to flip.
- Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the flatbreads and cook the other side for an additional 7-8 minutes until fully cooked through and golden brown on both sides. The flatbreads should have a slightly crisp exterior while remaining soft inside.
- Serve Warm: Remove the flatbreads from the pan and serve immediately. Enjoy plain or with your favorite toppings such as avocado, smoked salmon, or a fresh salad.
Notes
- Use well-drained cottage cheese to avoid excess moisture that can prevent proper cooking.
- Omitting salt will result in a more neutral flavor, suitable for pairing with savory or sweet toppings.
- Herbs like oregano or thyme add aromatic notes, but you can experiment with any spices you prefer.
- Cook on medium heat to ensure thorough cooking without burning.
- These flatbreads are best enjoyed fresh but can be kept refrigerated for up to 2 days.
