Ingredients
1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large egg
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, olive oil, and egg. Mix until smooth
Add flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until a shaggy dough forms
Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 2-3 minutes
Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Flatten each into a 6-inch circle (1/2-inch thickness)
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and firm
Top each flagel with mozzarella and spinach during the last 3 minutes of baking
Notes
Use avocado oil instead of olive oil for higher smoke point
Substitute non-fat cottage cheese for lower calories
