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 egg whites, spread on a cookie sheet, and bake. With 18 g of protein in just 119 calories, this flatbread makes a great base for a healthy wrap or pizza

Ingredients
Serving(s)
  • 1 cup Nonfat cottage cheese
  • 3 large, or 6.5 tbsp Egg whites
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Oregano, dried
  • 2 tbsp Psyllium husks, whole
Instructions
Cook Mode Off: Prevents screen dimming
Pictures: Shown
  1. Preheat your oven to 350F, and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the paper
  2. Add all to a small blender or food processor, and blend until smooth
    1. Evenly spread the batter on your pan
    1. Bake at 350F for about 30 minutes, or until browned on the edges and set in the center
    1. 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
    1. Cut in half to use as a wrap or pizza
    Notes
    1. Whole eggs can be used in place of egg whites. 2 large eggs (100 g) is the substitution. Aquafaba will not work; I have tried
    2. The psyllium husk provides a better texture and extra fiber. It is optional if you do not have it, but highly recommended
