Fluffy, protein-packed, and ridiculously easy to make, this Cottage Cheese Flatbread is the kind of recipe you didn’t know you needed. With just two main ingredients, you can whip up a soft, pliable flatbread that works for wraps, toast, or even as a pizza base.

Whether you’re cutting carbs, adding more protein, or just love a kitchen shortcut that delivers, this flatbread will quickly become a staple. It’s naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and versatile enough to pair with both savory and sweet toppings.


What Kind of Cottage Cheese Works Best?

Go for full-fat or 2% cottage cheese for the best results. The curds blend smoothly, giving the batter structure and richness. Small curd or whipped varieties work well, too. Just avoid dry curd or fat-free versions, which can turn the flatbread rubbery or brittle.


Ingredients for the Cottage Cheese Flatbread

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • Optional: pinch of salt, garlic powder, or herbs for extra flavor

How To Make the Cottage Cheese Flatbread

Step 1: Blend Until Smooth

Add cottage cheese and eggs to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Pour and Spread

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour the batter onto the parchment and spread into a thin, even rectangle (about ¼ inch thick).

Step 3: Bake to Golden Perfection

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the surface is firm to the touch. Let it cool slightly before peeling off the parchment.

Step 4: Slice and Serve

Cut into desired shapes or use whole as a wrap. Store extras in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for later.


How to Serve and Store Your Flatbread

This flatbread is ultra-flexible—literally. Use it as a tortilla, cut it into triangles for dipping, or turn it into mini pizzas with your favorite toppings. Toast it slightly for extra crunch or microwave to re-soften.

To store, wrap in foil or place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze with parchment between layers, then reheat in a skillet or toaster oven.


Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don’t have a blender?

You can mash the cottage cheese and whisk well, but a blender guarantees the smoothest texture.

Can I make this dairy-free?

Unfortunately, cottage cheese is essential here. For a dairy-free version, try my Homemade Cheez-Its Recipe.

Can I double the recipe?

Yes! Just use a larger baking sheet or make two batches. The flatbread freezes beautifully.

Is this keto or low-carb?

Yes, it’s low in carbs and high in protein, making it great for keto lifestyles.

Can I use egg whites instead of whole eggs?

You can, but the flatbread may be slightly less rich and more prone to cracking.
