Instructions
Making Low Carb Cottage Cheese Flatbread is straightforward if you follow these clear steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Blend Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and egg until smooth. You may use a fork or hand mixer for a creamy texture.
3. Add Dry Ingredients: Mix in the almond flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt. Add garlic and onion powders if desired for extra flavor.
4. Combine Until Smooth: Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well incorporated, forming a thick batter.
5. Shape the Flatbread: Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula or your hands to spread it into a round or rectangular shape, about ½ inch thick.
6. Bake: Place the shaped batter in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Cool Briefly: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
8. Slice and Serve: Cut into pieces or leave whole, and enjoy warm or at room temperature!
