Kitchen Tools Needed:
- Mixing bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Rolling pin
- Non-stick skillet or griddle
- Measuring cups
Ingredients:
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup self-rising flour
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Dough
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and self-rising flour.
- Stir with a spoon or spatula until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. If it’s too sticky to handle, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until manageable.
2. Shape the Flatbread
- Lightly flour a clean surface and transfer the dough onto it.
- Divide the dough into four equal portions.
- Using a rolling pin or your hands, gently flatten each portion into a round or oval shape, about 1/4-inch thick. Adjust thickness to your preference.
3. Cook the Flatbread
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Once hot, place a flatbread onto the skillet.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear and the bread is cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining flatbreads.
4. Serve and Enjoy
- Serve warm as is, or top with hummus, avocado, smoked salmon, or even a drizzle of honey for a sweet touch.
Tips & Variations:
- No Self-Rising Flour? Make your own by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Flavor Boost: Add herbs like rosemary or thyme, or a pinch of garlic powder for extra taste.
- Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer shelf life.
