Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time35 minutes
Total Time40 minutes
Servings: 2 flatbreads

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. Tilt the pan to spread it into an even layer on the pan. Sprinkle a little more Italian seasoning on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until golden brown around the edges. The flatbread will puff up in the oven and flatten out as it cools.
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes then cut in half to make two flatbreads. Use them in your favorite sandwiches. I used mayo, chicken, and your favorite sandwich 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. Low-fat versions make the batter thinner and the flatbread wetter. The flatbread puffs up in the oven and flattens as it cools — that's normal.
More sandwich toppings:
  • Another protein: Add any deli meat like turkey, ham, roast beef, or salami. Or se up leftover rotisserie chicken.
  • Different spices: Add red pepper flakes for a small kick or greek seasoning.
  • Another sauce: pesto, honey mustard, spicy mayo, or ranch are great options.
  • Pile on the veggies! It's great with bell peppers, peperoncini, cucumber, or pickled onion.
Different ways to serve cottage cheese flatbread:
  • Make a hot sandwich melt with your favorite cheese and protein. Toast it in the oven to melt warm end melt the cheese!
  • Turn it into a flatbread pizza instead of gluten-free sheet pan pizza.
  • Roll it into a wrap with classic chicken salad or curry chicken salad.
