Ingredients

Scale

Primary Ingredients

  • 1 cup well-drained full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 cup self-rising flour (or gluten-free self-rising flour blend for gluten-free version)

Instructions

  1. Gather Your Ingredients: Measure out 1 cup of well-drained cottage cheese and 1 cup of self-rising flour, ensuring the cottage cheese has minimal moisture to avoid soggy dough.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese and self-rising flour. Stir until the mixture forms a sticky, soft dough.
  3. Prepare Your Work Surface: Lightly flour a clean surface or use parchment paper. Turn the dough out onto it and gently knead it a few times to bring it together.
  4. Shape the Flatbreads: Divide the dough into even portions (typically 4). Roll each portion into a round flat shape about 1/4 inch thick, ready for cooking.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly puffed.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the flatbreads rest for a minute or two to firm up, then serve with your favorite toppings, dips, or fillings.

Notes

  • Drain cottage cheese thoroughly to avoid soggy or sticky dough.
  • Use fresh self-rising flour for best puff and texture.
  • Cook on medium heat to achieve a golden crust without burning.
  • Roll dough thinner for crispier flatbreads or thicker for softer, chewier results.
  • Allow flatbreads to cool slightly before serving to let flavors settle.
