Ingredients

  • 180 g cottage cheese about ¾ cup
  • ½ cup flour
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and flour. Mix until well combined.
  • Line a non-stick baking tray with parchment paper, then pour the mixture on top. Using a spoon, gently spread it out in a circular motion to form your pizza base—just be careful not to make it too thin.

  • Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the base turns golden. If it needs a little longer, leave it in for an extra 3–5 minutes, but keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn. Once done, let it cool slightly for 3–5 minutes.
  • Spread over some tomato passata (or any pizza sauce you like), sprinkle on your cheese, and add your toppings—I went with salami slices, but feel free to customize it however you like.

  • Take it out, allow it to cool for a few minutes, slice it up, and enjoy your homemade cottage cheese pizza!
