Ingredients
  • 1 cup 2% or 4% cottage cheese Not zero-fat
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • 1 tbsp ground flax seed*
  • Optional: ½ tsp garlic salt or other seasoning of your choice However, don't add seasonings with a lot of salt added. Cottage cheese already has enough sodium.
Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.

  2. Add ingredients to bowl, mix until combined. Form into two balls.

  3. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet. Use hands to smoosh down and form into two thin discs, approx. 6” diameter.

  4. Bake for approx. 20 minutes, or until turned golden brown and edges just about to get too brown. Remove from oven and let cool on pan about 5-10 minutes.

  5. Top with ingredients of choice and return to oven to bake for 10 more minutes, or until toppings done to your liking.

  6. If you don’t use the 2nd crust, wrap up and store in fridge for use later, up to 5 days.

  7. *If you can’t find this flax meal, try subbing in with 1 tbsp. more coconut flour. I can’t 100% vouch for outcome, but it should work. The flax is just a nice variety, offers fiber and omega fatty acids.
