📝 Ingredients (Makes 2 medium flatbreads or 4 small ones)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (full-fat, low-moisture recommended)
- 2 tbsp cream cheese
- 2 tbsp unflavored collagen peptides OR pork rinds powder (optional, for texture/firmness)
- Pinch of salt
Optional (for flavor or flexibility):
- ½ tsp garlic powder or dried herbs (skip for strict carnivore)
👨🍳 Instructions
- Melt Cheeses:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt mozzarella and cream cheese together in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. (Or use stovetop over low heat.) - Add Eggs & Dry Ingredients:
Stir in eggs, salt, and collagen or pork rind powder (if using). Mix until a sticky dough forms. - Shape Flatbreads:
Place dough between two pieces of parchment paper. Roll or press into flatbread shapes — about ¼ inch thick. - Bake or Pan-Fry:
- Oven: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, then broil for 1–2 minutes for crisp edges.
- Skillet: Cook over medium heat (no oil needed) for 2–3 mins per side, until golden and firm.
- Cool Slightly & Serve:
Let rest for a few minutes before using. They firm up as they cool.

❓ Q/A
Q: Can I make this dairy-free?
A: It’s challenging without cheese. You could try whipped egg whites with gelatin for a pancake-style version, but texture will differ.
Q: Can I add liver or organ powder?
A: Yes — add 1 tsp desiccated liver powder for a nutrient boost, but it may slightly change the flavor.
Q: Can I use other cheeses?
A: Mozzarella is best for structure. Hard cheeses like cheddar work but may make it greasy or crumbly.
Q: Can I use it as a pizza base?
A: Absolutely! Bake it first, then top with meat, cheese, and return to the oven until melted.
Q: Is this freezer-friendly?
A: Yes! Wrap flatbreads individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in toaster or pan.
