Step 2

In a small bowl, combine cottage cheese and oat flour. Stir until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms. If too dry, add a teaspoon of water; if too wet, add a little more flour.

Step 3

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat into a round about 1/4-inch thick. You can also press it directly in the skillet.

Step 4

Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. The flatbread should feel firm and spring back when pressed.

Step 5

Serve warm as a wrap, with toppings, or alongside your favorite protein bowl. Enjoy immediately or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

For best results

  • For best results, use full-fat cottage cheese for a richer texture.
  • Let the dough rest for 2 minutes before cooking to allow the flour to hydrate.
  • If using all-purpose flour, the flatbread will be slightly less tender but still delicious.

Variations

  • Add a pinch of garlic powder, dried herbs, or everything bagel seasoning for extra flavor.
  • Swap oat flour for almond flour for a gluten-free, lower-carb option (note: texture will vary).
  • Make it a sweet version by adding a dash of cinnamon and a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
