Ingredients You’ll Need
Makes 6–8 flatbreads
- 1 cup cottage cheese (low-fat or full-fat, your choice)
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour for a lighter texture)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder (optional, for extra fluffiness)
- 1–2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Dough
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, salt, and baking powder (if using). Stir until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add the flour, one spoonful at a time, mixing with a spatula or your hands until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour; if too dry, add a teaspoon of water.
Step 2: Divide and Roll
- Divide the dough into 6–8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a thin circle or oval, about 1/8-inch thick. Aim for an even thickness to ensure even cooking.
Step 3: Cook the Flatbreads
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with olive oil.
- Place one rolled-out flatbread in the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes , or until bubbles form and the bottom is lightly golden with charred spots.
- Flip the flatbread and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes , adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Repeat with the remaining dough, stacking the cooked flatbreads on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft and warm.
