Ingredients

Scale

dough

  • 1 cup cottage cheese I used full fat
  • 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

toppings

  • ½ cup pasta or pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese I shredded mine from a roll of buffalo mozzarella
  • ½ cup fresh chopped basil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add cottage cheese to a food processor and blend until smooth. Although you can do this in a blender, I recommend a food processor as it will emulsify better.
  • In a large bowl, mix together flour salt and baking powder. Then add in the blended cottage cheese and mix/knead until the flour and cottage cheese are fully combined.
  • Coat a cutting board in a dusting of flour. Using a rolling pin (Wine bottle or another smooth bottle should work), roll dough into a rectangle that is about ½ inch thick.
  • Spread on sauce. Then top with cheese and basil. Roll up the dough jelly roll style. Then using a wet sharp knife cut the dough into 9-10 portions.
  • Add rolls to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-30 minutes until dough is cooked through.
  • Let rolls cool for 10-15 minutes and then dig in. Serve with extra marinara sauce if desired.
