Cottage cheese has gone viral on social media over the past few years, and thanks to a new recipe gaining more and more attention online, there’s another use for this perfect calcium and protein-rich ingredient for summer.
Baked Cottage Cheese Wraps Are Taking Over Social Media Feeds
With over 72.5 million posts on TikTok alone, baked cottage cheese wraps are gaining popularity.
Like most viral recipes, this one uses just a few ingredients that most home cooks probably already have on hand and can be prepared in a snap with minimal effort.
“I’ve always hated fromage blanc, but I’m now a fan. And unlike the cream cheese ice cream, which was salty and disgusting, this one is a hit,” Nicole Keshishian Modic, culinary creator of KaleJunkie, told “Good Morning America” of her version of the latest recipe from flatbread gone viral. “They are strong and don’t collapse. »
Similar to high-protein wraps in the refrigerated section of the grocery store – like egglife or other thin gluten-free wraps – this recipe uses egg as a binder which, when mixed with cottage cheese, bakes into a thin layer on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. sheet tray to create a sturdy edible canvas, without flour or additives.
Once the bread-like base is made, it can be used to create wraps, flatbreads and more, depending on personal taste.
Modic shared two versions of the recipe she tested, the original and a spinach version to add a serving of vegetables and a pop of color.
“My version includes spinach, Parmesan cheese, fresh garlic, and Italian seasoning,” she wrote in the recipe. “Top it off however you like. I used garlic spread, turkey, salami, tomatoes, more spinach, and my homemade pickled onions.”
A flatbread-like wrap made from cottage cheese filled with sandwich fillings.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (I used a quarter sheet).
In a food processor or blender, add all ingredients and blend until smooth, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
Spread the dough into an even layer on the parchment paper using a silicone spatula. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is set. (Depending on your oven, you may need 40 minutes.) Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Then remove from parchment paper and fill with your favorite fillings!
Repeat the process for the rest of the dough, so you have two flatbreads.
To make the spinach version: Add 1 large handful of fresh spinach to the blender with the other dough ingredients and follow the recipe as directed above.
