This vibrant, protein-packed flatbread is the ultimate “secret weapon” for a low-carb lifestyle. It’s a sandwich wrap, a pizza crust, or a healthy snack.
I like to add greens, herbs or spinach to may flatbread to sneak in a bit of extra vitamins that you can’t really taste.
Pro-Tips for the Perfect Texture:
The Cooling Rule: This is non-negotiable. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes before peeling. It “sets” and becomes pliable, like a tortilla.
Grease the Paper: Even though it’s parchment, cottage cheese loves to stick. A quick spritz of oil ensures a clean peel.
The Spatula Spread: Use an offset spatula to push the batter to the edges. You want it about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
