Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a blender, combine 1 cup of cottage cheese, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon Italian herb mix. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Gather baking equipment like a baking sheet and parchment paper.
  3. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour the blended mixture onto the sheet and shape it into a round shape about ½ inch thick.
  4. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown and slightly puffed.
  5. Remove the base from the oven and increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C). Spread pizza sauce over the crust, add grated cheese and your favorite toppings.
  6. Bake the topped flatbread for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles.
  7. Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, slice into squares or wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

For extra-crispy crust, bake the flatbread a few more minutes before adding toppings. Pre-make the base to save time later.
