Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread is a light, airy, low-carb alternative to traditional bread, made from eggs and creamy cottage cheese. This recipe yields soft, delicate rounds perfect for sandwiches or as a snack, featuring a subtle tang from the cottage cheese and a crisp golden exterior achieved through gentle baking.

Ingredients

Scale

Eggs

  • 3 large eggs, separated

Dairy

  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese

Leavening and Seasoning

  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Beat Egg Whites: In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, creating the base for a fluffy texture.
  3. Mix Egg Yolks and Cottage Cheese: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cottage cheese, baking powder, and salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Fold Mixtures: Gently fold the stiff egg white mixture into the cottage cheese yolk mixture, carefully combining them without deflating the airy egg whites to maintain lightness.
  5. Shape and Bake: Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small rounds. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the cloud breads turn golden brown and are set.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and allow the cloud breads to cool for a few minutes before serving to let them firm up slightly for best texture.

Notes

  • Ensure egg whites are beaten to stiff peaks for optimal fluffiness.
  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for richer flavor and better texture.
  • Handle the folding step gently to preserve the airiness of the batter.
  • Cloud bread is best consumed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat lightly in a toaster oven or oven to restore crispness.
