Description
 Is cottage cheese still having its moment in the sun? I hope so, because this gluten and grain free bread is high in protein, low in carbs, and dead simple to make. Just blend together cottage cheese and eggs, spread on a cookie sheet, and bake. With over 18 g of protein in just 163 calories, this flatbread makes a great base for a healthy wrap or pizza

Ingredients

  • 2 large Egg

  1. Preheat your oven to 350F, and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the paper

    2.
  2. Add all to a small blender or food processor, and blend until smooth

    3.

  3. Egg whites can be used in place of whole eggs. 3 large egg whites, or 6.5 tbsp (100 g) is the substitution. Aquafaba will not work; I have tried. For a better texture and extra fiber, blend 2 tbsp (10 g) of psyllium husk into the batter. The psyllium husk will make the raw batter noticeably a little bit thicker

    4.
  4. Evenly spread the batter on your pan

    5.

  5. Bake at 350F for about 30 minutes, or until browned on the edges and set in the center

    6.

  6. Let it totally cool on the sheet. Place a piece of parchment paper on top, flip over the flatbread, and peel off the (now top) layer of parchment

    7.

  7. Cut in half to use as a wrap or pizza

    8.
