For the last two weeks, recipes and news stories for the "Viral Cottage Cheese Flatbread Everyone is Talking About" has been showing up in my news feed. Would this be the new "chaffle"? I had to find out for myself.

    Based on the variation in recipes I've seen for this on the internet in terms of time, temperature, and ingredient quantities, along with people saying that "it worked for me" or "it was a total fail", I'm leaning toward thinking that the brand of cottage cheese could be a factor (similar to the cottage cheese crackers).

    Hello. I've made this flatbread twice already. I used two eggs to 1 cup of full-fat cottage cheese and added my preferred spices. I sprayed parchment paper with olive oil, put a layer of bagel seasoning and a little shredded parm down as an extra layer on the bottom and baked at 360 degrees for about 40 minutes. I also topped it with a little more bagel seasoning and shredded parm. Let it brown slightly for more flavor. It came out perfect each time.

    I think fail videos are important to remind everyone that it rarely works the first time. Even the pros have recipes that go sideways, and that's OK. Let's face it, we learn from failure more than success!
  • @TheLakeMum
    I used full fat cottage cheese (Aldi’s) and 2 eggs on parchment paper. Made great flat bread wraps for sandwiches.
  • @YK-zv9of
    You need to use 2 eggs to 1 cup of cottage cheese,thats the recipe that I’ve seen everywhere. I’ve used various seasonings and it’s turned out amazing every time. I’ve added fresh parsley,along with the garlic and onion powder. I’ve used fresh green onion with cilantro and a little salt and pepper. I’ve even added caraway to create a rye style flat bread to make a keto/ low carb Reuben. The possibilities are endless and always turn out wonderful. I use parchment paper for mine when I bake it and it needs to bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees.

    Hi Steve! I’ve made it several times and it turns out perfect. I got the recipe from Shredhappens. I use 1 cup cottage cheese, 2 eggs, 1 clove of garlic, a small bunch of cilantro and a few shakes of Italian seasonings. I use parchment paper but I never spray the paper and it never sticks. 350 for 30 mins.
  • @amanda-644
    Thank you Steve. I used 1 cup cottage cheese and 2 eggs with onion powder ,garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Put parchment paper on my baking sheet that came with my digital air fryer. (Did not spray parchment paper) Baked on 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes. Let cool completely. Did not stick.
  • @MJN0922
    This was so good! I used 1 cup Cottage Cheese, 2 eggs, garlic powder, onion powder and whatever spices you like. Scrunch the parchment paper then spray with avocado oil. It makes 2 large pieces and it came right off the paper but you need to let it cool first. I loaded it with stuff halfway across then rolled it up. Don't push to hard as it may crack. Probably not sturdy enough for pizza unless you're good with folding it. And who isn't?! I can eat pizza without a crust and this will keep your hands clean🤣

    I don't at all mind seeing recipes that don't work. Shows that it happens to all of us, and sometimes the comments section will lead to solutions that will make things work. Really looking forward to seeing what you come up with for new chaffle recipes!

    I used 90ml of egg whites (equal to 2 whole eggs) and parchment paper (unsprayed) and Smaller pan (9x17?) and was quite satisfied with the results. Sliced it in half to make 2, stacked with the used parchment in between layers (I made 3 pans, so 6 wraps) in an old tortilla bag and put in fridge for a weeks worth of lunch sandwiches. Makes phenomenal BLT!
  • I used 1 cup of full fat cottage cheese, 2 eggs and 3 teaspoons of various spices. I spread it on sprayed parchment paper to the edges of a quarter baking sheet. 350 degrees for 40 minutes. It was brown (yours looked undercooked) and was perfect for two flatbread turkey sandwiches. I really liked it and will make it again.
  • @esther.f.g
    The comments from the viewers are GREAT! thank you to all of you for sharing your tips for this recipe and thank you to Steve, i will try this Sunday

    Hi Steve! 👋🐈 'Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavour.' - Truman Capote So, chaffles, eh? nom nom nom 🐈
  • @shancutler7324
    Hi Steve, I made it with 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup egg whites and some seasoning. 350 for 45 min, spread it on sprayed parchment but spread it thick as it shrinks to 1/3rd the thickness. It worked great! Made my husband a scrambled egg sandwich and he loved it! I hope you will try it.
  • @starfire8221
    Hi Steve I tried the Keto Twins recipe and cut it in half. I did mine the same as yours but used 2 eggs. Cooked on parchment paper, which I scrunched up first. Next time will spray it. I ended up cooking it more than 30 minutes. When it was cooled I turned it upside down and it came right off in one piece. I cut it into 6 squares. Made a turkey and cream cheese sandwich. Worked great, a bit of egg taste which I don’t mind. Thanks for your video.
  • @acocacola4u
    I heard that you must use 2 eggs for the flatbread: it helps it be pliable. I only had the low-fat cottage cheese and it worked great with the 2 eggs. I've seen one egg be used for pancakes. Thanks for your videos! -Evette
  • Hi Steve, today I attempted the cottage cheese flat bread. I was pleasantly surprised! One cup of cottage cheese, two eggs, and a tablespoon of lupin flour. I also added a little ranch powder for taste. I used parchment paper and sprayed with Avocado oil. It came right off the paper. cooked at 350 for 35 minutes. it's Crazy how cottage cheese could make a bread... LOL. :)
  • @zanth07
    I have cottage cheese on my shopping list for this week to try a variation of this. I saw a video earlier this week where someone used it as a pizza crust, that looked really yummy. I'll let you know once i try it!
  • @terber12392
    Tried this last week. Used 2 large eggs and 1 c cottage cheese and same seasoning only more. Baked on parchment paper sprayed with oil. Came off the paper easily. I would call it a spongy bread substance that is good for a "wrap." Wanted to see if I could get a different texture so next time added 1 packet of keto chow, a pinch of salt, and 1/8 tsp baking powder (no other seasoning). Same outcome, spongy but with mild taste of the keto chow.

    Looks like you've gotten plenty of comments on at least semi- successful flatbread attempts, so I'll just say I learn as much from the epic fails as the big wins.
