3-Ingredient Hot Honey Cottage Cheese Flatbread (High-Protein, Viral & So Easy!)

Ingredients

• full-fat cottage cheese (4% milkfat recommended)1 cup (240g)
• self-rising flour1 cup (120g)
• hot honey3 tablespoons (60g)
• flaky sea salt (like Maldon)1/2 teaspoon
• olive oil or avocado oil (for cooking)1 tablespoon

Directions

1. 1

   Step 1: Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. While the skillet heats, drain the cottage cheese in a fine-mesh strainer if it's very wet (this helps the flatbread crisp up faster).

2. 2

   Step 2: In a medium mixing bowl, add the drained cottage cheese and 1 cup of self-rising flour. Mix with a silicone spatula until a shaggy dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but not overly wet—if too sticky, add another tablespoon of flour.

3. 3

   Step 3: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper. Using floured hands, pat it into a rough rectangle about 1/2-inch thick. Don't overwork it—you want a rustic, uneven shape for those crispy bits.

4. 4

   Step 4: Carefully transfer the flatbread (parchment and all) into the hot skillet. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes on the first side, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to flip, then cook another 4 to 5 minutes on the second side.

5. 5

   Step 5: Transfer the cooked flatbread to a cutting board. Immediately drizzle 2 to 3 tablespoons of hot honey over the top while it's still hot—this lets the honey sink into all the nooks and crannies. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

   Step 6: Let the flatbread rest for 1 to 2 minutes before slicing. Cut into wedges or strips with a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Serve warm with extra hot honey on the side for dipping.
