Description
This cloud bread is soft, airy, and slightly chewy with a delicate texture that melts in your mouth. Despite having no flour, it holds together beautifully and can be used as a bread substitute for sandwiches, snacks, or even desserts.
Ingredients & Quantities
3 large eggs (separated)
3 tablespoons cream cheese (softened)
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional, helps stabilize)
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Separate the egg whites and yolks into two bowls.
Add cream cheese to the egg yolks and mix until smooth.
In the other bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar and salt until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites—be careful not to deflate the mixture.
Spoon the mixture into small rounds on the baking tray.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and firm.
Let cool before serving.
Origin
Cloud bread gained popularity within low-carb and keto communities in recent years, although its concept is inspired by classic soufflé techniques from French cuisine.
