Method
 

Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375?F and position the rack to the top position. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the cottage cheese in the food processor or blender and pulse or blend on high until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Transfer the cottage cheese to a medium bowl and add the flour. Mix until completely combined and the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
  4. Transfer the dough to a generously floured work surface and knead the dough 8-10 times, until smooth. Add more flour to the work surface as needed until the dough is no longer sticky.
  5. Roll the dough into a ball and divide it into 4 equal balls. Roll each ball out into a 6-7 inch rope, about 1-inch thick. Join the ends to make a circle and pinch the seam tightly to seal.
  6. Brush the tops with a beaten egg and top with your seasoning of choice.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
