Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add one cup of well-mixed cottage cheese and one cup of all-purpose flour. Stir them together until a soft and cohesive dough begins to form, which will take about 1-2 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it starts pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 2-3 minutes. The goal is to ensure the dough is smooth and slightly elastic without overworking it, which will help keep the flatbread light and fluffy. Form the dough into a ball for easy handling.
- Using a bench scraper or knife, divide the dough into equal portions, depending on how large you want your flatbreads. Roll each portion into a smooth ball and then flatten it gently into a round disc, about ¼ inch thick.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Once hot, place your first flatbread in the skillet, cooking for about 2-3 minutes until golden-brown spots form, signaling that it’s time to flip.
- Flip the flatbread gently using a spatula, allowing the other side to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. You want a soft, cooked texture that still has a little give when pressed. Repeat this process for each piece of dough, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
- Once cooked, stack the warm Cottage Cheese Flatbreads on a plate, covering them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm and soft. They are perfect as a base for your favorite toppings or enjoyed plain.

Notes
Ensure your cottage cheese is thoroughly mixed to achieve a smooth dough. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days to keep them soft. For the best reheating texture, use a skillet rather than a microwave.
