Dough Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy cottage cheese Rich in taste and texture, adds moisture.
- 2 cups all-purpose flour Foundation for the dough.
- 1 teaspoon baking powder For the perfect rise.
- ½ teaspoon salt Enhances overall flavor.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil Adds a touch of Mediterranean flavor.
- ¼ cup warm water Binds the dough together.
- 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (optional) Optional for added flavor and aroma.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of cottage cheese, 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
- Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and add ¼ cup of warm water, mixing until a dough begins to form.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
- Divide the dough into small portions (about the size of a golf ball) and roll each into flat circles, about ¼ inch thick.
Cooking
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and place one flatbread in the pan.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Optionally, sprinkle fresh herbs on top before serving.
Notes
To enhance flavor, ensure dough consistency: add more flour if sticky or more water if dry. Over-kneading can lead to tough flatbread; only knead until smooth.
