Let's cook

  1. Blend completely smooth

    Blend the cottage cheese and eggs until there is no curd texture left at all — a good 60 seconds. Any lumps remaining will show up as rubbery patches.

    💡

    Blend it far longer than seems necessary. Smooth is the whole thing.

  2. Season the batter

    Stir in the herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  3. Spread thin on parchment

    Pour onto a parchment-lined tray and spread into a thin rectangle, about an eighth of an inch. Thicker and it stays eggy and soft.

  4. Bake until dry

    Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35–40 minutes until fully set, dry to the touch, and golden at the edges.

    💡

    Underbaking is the most common failure — it should feel dry, not tacky.

  5. Cool before moving

    Cool 10 minutes on the tray before lifting; it firms up considerably as it cools.

📝 Tips, swaps, and make-ahead notes

Full-fat cottage cheese gives a much better texture than low-fat, which bakes up watery. Use it as a wrap, a pizza base (add toppings and grill for 5 minutes), or cut into crackers.

  • Pizza base: Bake as above, add sauce and cheese, then grill 5 minutes.
  • Crisper: Return to a 400°F oven for 5 minutes after cooling.
  • Storage: Keeps 3 days refrigerated; re-crisp in a dry pan.
