Ingredients
Scale
Cloud Bread
- 3 eggs, separated
- 3 tablespoons whole milk cottage cheese or cream cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 (1 g) packet artificial sweetener (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Egg Whites: Separate the egg whites from the yolks carefully, placing the whites in a clean mixing bowl. Add the cream of tartar to the egg whites and beat them vigorously using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Mix Egg Yolks and Cheese: In a separate bowl, blend the egg yolks with the cottage cheese (or cream cheese) and the artificial sweetener if using. Mix until smooth and fully combined.
- Fold Mixtures Together: Gently fold the egg yolk and cheese mixture into the whipped egg whites. Use a spatula to combine carefully to maintain the airy texture, avoiding deflating the egg whites.
- Spoon Batter onto Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon the batter into small rounds about 3-4 inches in diameter, shaping them nicely and keeping even spacing.
- Bake the Cloud Bread: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Bake the cloud bread rounds for 25 to 30 minutes or until they turn golden on the top and are set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- You can use cream cheese instead of cottage cheese for a richer flavor and smoother texture.
- The artificial sweetener is optional and can be omitted if you prefer savory bread.
- Ensure egg whites are whipped until stiff peaks form to achieve maximum fluffiness.
- Cool cloud bread completely before slicing or serving to help maintain structure.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days.
