Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese, small curd or whipped Best results with small curd for smooth blending.
- 2 large eggs Use room temperature for better emulsification.
- 1 pinch salt For general seasoning.
Seasonings
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder For everyday use.
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning Great for pizza night.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder Adds savory depth.
Optional ingredients
- 2 tablespoons finely grated parmesan For cheesy variation.
- 1 teaspoon baking powder Optional for added lift.
- 1 teaspoon honey For sweet variation.
- 1 pinch cinnamon For sweet variations.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- In a blender or food processor, add the cottage cheese, eggs, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Pulse until the mixture is smooth and homogenous; you want no visible curds left.
- If using parmesan or baking powder, add them and give one final quick pulse.
Shape and Bake
- Spoon the batter onto the prepared sheet and spread it with a spatula into a roughly 8–10 inch circle or into two smaller ovals.
- Smooth the top to an even thickness.
- Sprinkle extra parmesan or a pinch of Italian seasoning on top if desired.
- Bake for 12–18 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is set.
Cooling and Serving
- Remove from oven and let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes to firm up.
- Transfer to a wire rack if you want crisper bottoms, or top immediately while warm.
- Serve savory or sweet as desired.
Notes
For extra-crispy bottoms, move the pan to a lower rack for the last 2–3 minutes. Store leftovers wrapped in parchment to prevent sticking.
