Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

Start by grating the Suluguni cheese finely and placing it in a large mixing bowl.

Add the soft cottage cheese, large egg, flour, and a pinch of salt to the bowl.

Mix everything together thoroughly until you achieve a smooth dough consistency.

Step 2

Form the Flatbreads

Once the dough is ready, visually divide it into four equal parts.

Take each part and place it onto a piece of parchment paper, ideally non-stick or silicone.

Using a spatula, gently shape each portion into a flatbread, making sure they are evenly formed.

Step 3

Bake the Flatbreads

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit).

Once the oven is ready, place the flatbreads inside and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes.

Make sure the oven is fully heated before adding the flatbreads for better results.

Step 4

Serve and Enjoy!

Your protein-packed flatbreads are now ready to be enjoyed.

Feel free to add any filling you have in your refrigerator for extra flavor.

Bon appétit!
