🍞 Make fresh, soft flatbread quickly with this cottage cheese flatbread recipe using a food processor for convenience.
πŸ§„ Infused with garlic and customizable with herbs, it’s a versatile option that pairs well with many meals.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 26 minutes
  • Yield: 4 flatbreads

Ingredients

– 250 grams bread flour (preferably high-gluten)

– 1 teaspoon instant yeast

– 1 teaspoon sugar (can substitute with less processed alternatives)

– 1/2 teaspoon salt

– 120 grams cottage cheese (low-fat or full-fat), warmed to room temperature

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– Water, as needed (approximately 2-4 tablespoons)

– Oil for cooking (approximately 1 tablespoon)

– Optional: chopped herbs or nutritional yeast for extra flavor

Instructions

1-Getting started: with this garlic cottage cheese naan is as simple as using your food processor, which cuts down on prep time significantly. Begin by combining the dry ingredients in your food processor to ensure they mix evenly. This approach makes the process fun and accessible for beginners, like students or busy parents racing against the clock.

2-Follow the directions closely for the best outcome. In a food processor, combine 250 grams bread flour, 1 teaspoon instant yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Add 120 grams of warmed cottage cheese and process for 15-20 seconds until the dough begins to come together, adding water one tablespoon at a time if needed to form a soft dough.

3-Transfer the dough to a bowl, cover loosely, and let it rise for 1 hour until puffy, or refrigerate overnight for 8 to 48 hours before bringing it to room temperature. Gently deflate the dough, divide into four equal parts, and stretch each into a round shape, then let them rise for an additional 15-20 minutes. Preheat a skillet and add a small amount of oil; cook each naan on low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, using a lid to reduce splatter and speed cooking. Serve warm, optionally garnished with chopped herbs or nutritional yeast.
