Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil (plus more for finishing)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup cottage cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley or basil, chopped
Instructions
1. Mix flour, yogurt, olive oil, baking powder, and salt until a dough forms. Knead until smooth. Rest for 15 minutes.
2. Blend cottage cheese until smooth.
3. Warm olive oil in a pan. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in herbs and remove from heat.
4. Divide dough into 4 balls and roll into flat rounds or ovals.
5. Spread whipped cottage cheese over each. Brush with garlic-herb oil.
6. Bake on preheated cast iron or sheet at 475°F for 10–12 minutes until golden.
Notes
Whip the cottage cheese until smooth for even melting.
Preheating your pan helps get those golden blisters.
For crispier results, finish with a quick broil at the end.
