This high-protein, low-point flatbread is popular among WeightWatchers members because it’s versatile, filling, and can be used as a pizza crust, sandwich wrap, or base for toast toppings.

Yield

  • 1 large flatbread (2 servings)

Prep Time

  • 5 minutes

Cook Time

  • 30–35 minutes

Total Time

  • 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (225 g) low-fat cottage cheese (1% or fat-free for lower WW Points)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • ¼ tsp salt (optional)
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Optional Toppings

  • Everything bagel seasoning
  • Sesame seeds
  • Dried herbs
  • Chili flakes

Equipment

  • Blender or food processor
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Spatula

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a baking sheet or quarter-sheet pan with parchment paper.

Do not skip the parchment paper, as it helps prevent sticking.


Step 2: Blend the Ingredients

Add to a blender:

  • Cottage cheese
  • Eggs
  • Garlic powder
  • Onion powder
  • Italian seasoning
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Blend for 30–60 seconds until completely smooth.

The batter should be thin and pourable.


Step 3: Spread the Batter

Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet.

Using a spatula, spread into a rectangle or oval shape approximately:

  • ¼ inch (6 mm) thick

Try to keep the thickness even for uniform baking.


Step 4: Add Optional Seasonings

Sprinkle the surface with:

  • Everything bagel seasoning
  • Sesame seeds
  • Dried herbs

if desired.


Step 5: Bake

Bake for 30–35 minutes or until:

  • Golden brown around the edges
  • Surface is dry
  • Center is set

The flatbread should feel firm when lightly touched.


Step 6: Cool

Allow to cool on the pan for 10 minutes.

Then carefully transfer to a wire rack.

Cooling improves texture and flexibility.


Step 7: Serve

Use as:

Pizza Base

Top with sauce, cheese, and toppings, then bake another 8–10 minutes.

Sandwich Wrap

Fill with turkey, chicken, vegetables, or tuna salad.

Breakfast Flatbread

Top with eggs, avocado, or smoked salmon.

Snack

Cut into strips and serve with hummus or yogurt dip.
