Healthy twist: Mini pizzas with cottage cheese steal the show

I don't know anyone who doesn't love pizza, even in mini form. When I serve them as a snack at gatherings with friends, hands immediately shoot up for a little bun. I replace a significant portion of the flour with cottage cheese, making them a healthier, protein-packed snack. This recipe can't fail.

No waiting for the dough to rise, no long kneading, and no long waits. You'll make these express mini pizzas in no time. They'll disappear from plates even faster – I don't know anyone who wouldn't like them. Cottage cheese is an excellent source of protein, making the dish lighter and suitable even for those on a diet.

You can choose the toppings as you like. Chopped vegetables, deli meat, or chicken work well here, and cheese is necessary.

Ingredients:

        
• 200 g cottage cheese.
• 2 eggs.
• 85 g light spelt or wheat flour.
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder.
• Seasonings: salt, pepper, basil, oregano, garlic.

Toppings:

          
• 85 g tomato passata.
• 45 g ham.
• 45 g red bell pepper.
• 55 g mozzarella cheese.
• 45 g onion.
• chives.

Preparation:

1. Mix the cottage cheese with eggs, flour, baking powder, and seasonings in a bowl.
2. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
3. Form the mini pizzas out of the prepared mixture on the parchment paper.
4. Bake at 190°C for about 15 minutes.
5. When the bases are slightly baked, take them out of the oven. Spread with passata or tomato sauce, and add your favourite toppings like bell pepper, ham, or onion.
6. Sprinkle with grated cheese and put back in the oven for another 6-7 minutes.

Decorate the ready mini pizzas with chopped chives. Serve warm or cold. Enjoy!
