Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 3 tablespoons softened cream cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar or preferred sweetener (adjust to taste)
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or herbs/spices for flavoring

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients and Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Soften the cream cheese so it blends smoothly with the egg yolks.
  2. Separate Eggs: Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks, placing the whites in a clean, dry bowl and the yolks in a separate bowl.
  3. Whip Egg Whites: Add cream of tartar to the egg whites and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, creating the airy structure for the bread.
  4. Mix Cream Cheese and Yolks: In another bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with the egg yolks and sweetener until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Fold Whites into Cheese Mixture: Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, careful to retain the airiness.
  6. Shape and Bake: Spoon rounds of batter onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, slightly flattening each. Bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown and set.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cloud bread cool slightly before removing from the baking sheet to prevent breaking. Serve fresh for best texture.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for better texture and easier mixing.
  • Ensure bowls and utensils are completely clean and grease-free for whipping egg whites.
  • Fold egg whites gently to maintain fluffiness and avoid deflating.
  • Bake at low temperature for a longer time to keep bread airy and prevent over-browning.
  • Try making different sizes: mini rounds for snacks or larger shapes for sandwiches.
