Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1-1/4 cups oat flour (150g)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (56g)
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (30g)
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (blended)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 egg white

Garlic Topping:

  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 2 pinches salt
  • 6 ounces mozzarella cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Place 1 cup cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth. Add the egg and blend just until combined.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 1-1/4 cups oat flour, 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well combined.
    Add the blended cottage cheese and 1 egg to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. The dough should slightly stick to your fingers when touched. If it’s too dry, add a little water and if it’s too wet, add a little more flour.
  • Pour some oil in your hands and shape the dough into a smooth loaf on a baking sheet. In a small bowl, lightly beat 1 egg white. Brush the top of the loaf lightly with the egg white, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds.
  • Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack to allow the interior to set properly. If you slice it while it’s still warm, the center can crush and become gummy.
  • in a small bowl add 1/3 cup butter, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon salt and mix until smooth. And shred 6 ounces of mozzarella cheese and set aside.
    Slice the cooled loaf of bread in half and spread the butter generously on both halves. Then divide the cheese in half and sprinkle over both loaves.
  • Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving to let the cheese set slightly.

Notes

Blend cottage cheese thoroughly: Any lumps will affect the bread's texture, so take the extra time to blend until completely smooth.
Bake right away: Be sure to preheat your oven so you can bake the loaf as soon as it’s shaped. If the loaf is allowed to sit out for too long before baking, the oat flour will absorb more liquid and the loaf will be dense. You can bake the bread ahead of time and store wrapped on the counter or in the fridge until you add the garlic and cheese and bake it.
Cut long loaves or individual slices: You can slice the baked loaf into two halves along the length or make individual slices before spreading the garlic and cheese on them.
Let it cool properly: Resist cutting into the bread while hot, or the inside can squish and become gummy.
