Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how these tortillas come together with only two ingredients and zero fuss. They’re packed with protein, naturally gluten-free, and surprisingly versatile. I can use them as a wrap, fold them up for tacos, or enjoy them plain as a snack. They’re soft, flexible, and hold up well without falling apart—plus, I know exactly what’s in them.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 cup cottage cheese (225 g)
2 large eggs

Directions

  1. I preheat my oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  2. In a blender, I combine the cottage cheese and eggs until the mixture is completely smooth and pourable.

  3. I spoon the batter into 4 equal portions on the tray and gently spread each into a thin, round tortilla shape.

  4. I bake them for 8–10 minutes until the edges look set and slightly firm to the touch.

  5. Once they’re out of the oven, I let them cool for 5 minutes before peeling them off the parchment gently. At this point, they’re soft, bendy, and ready to use.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes 4 tortillas. It only takes 5 minutes to prep and around 9 minutes to bake, so I have fresh, homemade tortillas ready in just 14 minutes.

Variations

Sometimes I season the batter with garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian herbs for added flavor. I’ve also stirred in a pinch of salt or a sprinkle of shredded cheese for a cheesy twist. If I want them firmer, I bake them for an extra minute or two to crisp the edges slightly.

Storage/Reheating

I store the tortillas in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When I’m ready to use them, I warm each one in the microwave for about 10 seconds to bring back that soft, foldable texture. They hold up well and don’t dry out quickly.

FAQs

Do I need a blender for this recipe?

Yes, I use a blender to get the mixture completely smooth. This helps the tortillas cook evenly and prevents any curdled texture from the cottage cheese.

Can I use egg whites instead of whole eggs?

I’ve tried using egg whites, and they do work, but the tortillas come out a bit more delicate. I prefer whole eggs for structure and richness.

Are these tortillas good for low-carb diets?

Absolutely. Each tortilla only has around 3 grams of carbs, so they fit easily into a low-carb or keto-friendly plan.

Can I freeze these tortillas?

Yes, I layer them between parchment paper and freeze them in a zip-top bag. I thaw them in the fridge and warm them up just before using.

What’s the texture like?

They’re soft, flexible, and almost crepe-like in texture. I like how they don’t tear easily and can hold fillings well without breaking.

Conclusion

These 2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Tortillas are my go-to when I want something healthy, fast, and protein-packed. They’re endlessly adaptable and so easy to make that I often whip up a batch at the start of the week. Whether I use them for lunch wraps or light snacks, they always deliver on texture, taste, and simplicity.
