A quick and easy high-protein flatbread made with cottage cheese and everything bagel seasoning, perfect for snacks, light meals, or a versatile base for toppings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat, small-curd preferred)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (90 grams; can substitute almond or oat flour for gluten-free)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning (or mix of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, onion flakes, and salt)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Olive oil (for cooking and optional brushing)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup cottage cheese and 2 large eggs. Blend with a fork or whisk until mostly smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing. Batter will be thick but scoopable.
  3. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add about 1 teaspoon olive oil, spreading evenly. Heat for 3-5 minutes until hot but not smoking.
  4. Scoop batter into the pan and spread gently with the back of a spatula to form a 6-7 inch circle about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Cook for 4-5 minutes until edges are set and golden brown spots appear on the bottom, smelling toasty and garlicky.
  6. Flip carefully with a spatula and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes until cooked through and golden brown. Press down gently if bubbles form.
  7. Repeat cooking for additional flatbreads, wiping excess oil between batches.
  8. Serve warm, optionally brushing with olive oil or topping as desired.

Notes

If batter is too wet, add 1 tablespoon more flour; if too dry, add a splash of water or milk. Use medium heat to avoid burning. Blend cottage cheese for smoother texture. Avoid overmixing to keep flatbread tender. Lightly oil pan to prevent sticking but avoid excess oil.
