- 1 large egg Binding agent for the dough.
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder For a lighter flatbread.

Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, flour, egg, and baking powder. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir until a dough forms.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth. If sticky, add more flour.
- Split the dough into several equal parts depending on how large you want your flatbreads.
- Use a rolling pin to flatten each piece of dough to about 1/4 inch thick.
Cooking
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil to coat the bottom.
- Place one rolled-out piece of dough in the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
- Continue with the remaining pieces of dough, keeping cooked flatbreads warm by covering them with a kitchen towel.
Notes
For added flavor, experiment with different herbs or spices in the dough. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
