Cheese Flatbreads

Ingredients

For the dough:

1 egg

250 g cottage cheese

150 g butter

250 g flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp salt

For the filling:

150 g mozzarella cheese

2 cloves garlic

1 tbsp sour cream

1 handful thyme

For greasing and sprinkling:

1 egg

A pinch of salt

Sesame seeds

Preheat oven to 190°C. Mix the cottage cheese with the butter, add the egg, and stir. Mix the flour with the baking powder, salt, and sugar, then add to the cottage cheese, butter, and egg mixture. Knead the dough. The dough should be pliable and not too hard. Let it rest for 10 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and mince the garlic. Mix the cheese, minced garlic, sour cream, and thyme. Divide the dough into two pieces, one slightly larger than the other. Roll each piece into a ball.

On a floured surface, roll each ball into a circle (one larger and one smaller in diameter), approximately 5-8 mm thick. Place the smaller circle on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush the edges with water, and spread the cheese filling over the entire surface. Cover with the second circle.

Fold the edges of the top circle under the bottom circle. Brush the flatbread with egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown. Cover the baked flatbread with a towel and cool slightly.

Bon appétit!
