Description
Cottage Cheese Flagels are flat, soft, high-protein flatbreads with a vegetarian twist. Combining cottage cheese, fresh spinach, and melted mozzarella, these savory flagels offer a satisfying texture and are ready in 30 minutes. Perfect for quick breakfasts or healthy snacks with a modern, protein-rich spin on traditional bagels.
Ingredients
250g (1 cup) cottage cheese (4% fat)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbsp olive oil
1 cup fresh spinach (chopped)
100g (1/2 cup) shredded mozzarella
3 tbsp water
1 tbsp poppy seeds (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet to medium heat. In a large bowl, mix cottage cheese, olive oil, baking powder, and water until smooth. In another bowl, combine flour and salt. Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until a sticky dough forms. Fold in spinach and mozzarella. Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a flat disc (about 6 inches in diameter). Cook on the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crisped. Optional: Sprinkle poppy seeds on top during the last minute of cooking.
Notes
For a richer texture, use 4% fat cottage cheese. Olive oil adds moisture and prevents dryness. Poppy seeds are optional but enhance the crust’s flavor. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
