Notes

  • The flatbread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
  • For a crisper texture, let the flatbread bake for the full 30 minutes or slightly longer depending on your oven.
  • If you have difficulty blending cottage cheese smooth, use full-fat or well-drained cottage cheese to reduce moisture.
