INGREDIENTS

1 cup cottage cheese full fat or 2%
2 eggs
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Sandwich Toppings: Rotisserie chicken or turkey breast, lettuce, tomato slices, dill mayo, and red onion (see recipe notes for more ideas)

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 9x13 inch baking sheet with parchment paper, creasing the corners of the pan for clean lines. If you only have a large half sheet pan, double the recipe.
Add the cottage cheese, eggs, Italian seasoning, and garlic to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
1 cup cottage cheese, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Pour it onto the prepared baking pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter into an even layer all the way to the edges. Keeping the thickness even helps it bake evenly. Sprinkle a little more Italian seasoning on top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the center is completely set. The flatbread will puff up in the oven and flatten as it cools, that's normal.
Cool for 10-15 minutes before peeling from the parchment or cutting. It firms up as it cools, which helps it hold together when folded. Cut in half to make two flatbread and fill with your favorite sandwich or wrap toppings.
Store leftover flatbread between pieces of parchment paper for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Use cold or reheat and enjoy!

Notes

For best results: Use full-fat or 2% cottage cheese. I've tested both and don't recommend low-fat cottage cheese because it makes the batter thinner and the finished flatbread wetter. Be sure to bake until the center is completely set, then cool 10-15 minutes before using. The flatbread will puff in the oven and flatten as it cools (that's normal!).
