Ingredients
- 1 cup vegan cottage cheese (store-bought or homemade)
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 2–4 tbsp plant-based milk (as needed for dough)
Instructions
First, preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Then, add vegan cottage cheese and olive oil, combining into a crumbly mixture.
Next, gradually add plant-based milk until a soft, pliable dough forms. After that, knead lightly on a floured surface.
Now, divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a thin flatbread.
Then, cook each flatbread in the preheated skillet for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Finally, serve warm with dips, spreads, or as a wrap base.
