3 Ingredient Avocado Cottage Cheese Flatbread
This low carb flatbread is so easy to make. It only needs 3 ingredients and five minutes to prepare. The flatbread is low carb, keto-friendly and high protein. It is great for making sandwiches and wraps.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (428 g) cottage cheese, can use lowfat or 4% milkfat, see note before starting
- 4 large eggs
- 1 large ripe avocado, about 200 grams before pit and skin removed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a half sheet pan (18 x 13 inches) with parchment paper (using enough parchment paper so that it lines the bottom and edges of the sheet pan). Spray the surface of the parchment paper with cooking oil spray. This will help prevent the flatbread from sticking to the parchment paper and will help it come off easily later.
- In a food processor, add cottage cheese, eggs and avocado. Blend until smooth. You can also use a blender to blend the ingredients.
- Pour the mixture onto your prepared sheet pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across but leave a little bit of buffer from the edge (about ½ inch) because the mixture will spread a little as it bakes. Try to spread the batter as straight as possible around the edges so that your flatbread will be mostly rectangle in shape when it is done baking.
- Bake for about 35-40 minutes or until surface is golden brown. The bread should also still be a light green color but with spots of golden brown on the surface.
- Allow the bread to fully cool before attempting to remove. If you try to remove while it is still hot, it will break apart easily. Once fully cooled you can peel/roll the flatbread off the parchment paper.
- Cut the flatbread in half so you end up with two large flatbreads for sandwiches or wraps. You can also cut/divide into 4 to make smaller sandwiches. I found it easier to cut the flatbread into 2 pieces and assemble two very large sandwiches which I then cut in half for a total of 4 sandwiches. Store any uneaten flatbread in the fridge.
Notes
- Cottage cheese note: This recipe works best with a high protein cottage cheese because the protein helps absorb the moisture from the flatbread. I like using Good Culture brand (either low fat or 4% milkfat) (Amazon | Target | Walmart)* which contains 14 grams or protein per 1/2 cup. You can use other cottage cheese but your flatbread may turn out more moist and soft.
- Half sheet pan is the most common size sheet pan that most people own and measures about 18 x 13 inches. I use Nordicware aluminum half sheet pan (Amazon | Target | Walmart).*
