Equipment

  • food processor or immersion blender
  • mixing bowl
  • parchment paper
  • baking sheet
  • spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup almond flour (or coconut flour)
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • pinch of salt
  • 0.25 cup shredded mozzarella (optional, for firmer crust)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Blend cottage cheese and eggs until smooth using a food processor or immersion blender.
  • Mix in almond flour, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and optional mozzarella until combined.
  • Spread batter onto parchment paper in a circle or oval, about ¼ inch thick.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway for extra crispiness, until golden and set in center.
  • Add your favorite toppings and return to oven or broil for 2–3 minutes to melt and brown cheese.

Notes

For extra crispiness, flip the crust halfway through baking or broil after adding toppings. Try flavor add-ins like Italian seasoning or chili flakes. Great for meal prep—bake, slice, and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
