My Go To Kitchen Tools for This Recipe:
How to Make a High Protein Cottage Cheese Wrap
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it with avocado oil spray to prevent sticking.
2. In a food processor, combine 1 cup of cottage cheese, eggs, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth (about 20-30 seconds). This ensures an even, lump-free wrap.
3. Pour the cottage cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and use a spatula to spread it into an even layer—about ⅛-inch thick. A thinner wrap means a better texture.
4. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the wrap is set in the center. Don’t over-bake, or it’ll become too dry and brittle.
5. Once baked, let the wrap cool for a few minutes before carefully peeling it off the parchment paper. If it sticks, gently loosen it with a spatula.
6. Use the wrap immediately or store it for later in an airtight container in the fridge. Now, let’s talk about some favorite fillings!
Jazz's Tips for Success:
Use Full-Fat Cottage Cheese: Some brands of cottage cheese are watery, which can make the wrap too soft. I recommend Good Culture for the best consistency. If yours is watery, strain out excess liquid first.
Blend Until Completely Smooth: A chunky batter won’t cook evenly, so blend well! I love my food processor (linked here), and I’ve used it weekly for over five years!
Spread the Batter Thinly: For a soft, flexible wrap, keep it as thin as possible—mine almost covered the entire baking sheet.
Check for Doneness: The wrap should be flexible but not sticky. If it’s undercooked, bake for another 2 minutes.
Let It Cool Before Peeling: If you try to remove it too soon, it may tear. Let it cool completely first!
