Mix Yolks

Origin and Cultural Significance
Cloud bread gained popularity during the low-carb movement of the 1970s and surged again with the keto lifestyle trend. As more people began focusing on weight management and blood sugar control, flourless alternatives became highly sought after.
It represents a shift in modern food culture — from heavy, processed carbs to lighter, mindful eating choices.
Optional Additions
For Savory:
Shredded mozzarella or parmesan
Fresh herbs
Everything bagel seasoning
Black pepper
For Sweet:
Cinnamon
Vanilla extract
Sugar-free maple flavoring
Tips for Success
Whip egg whites until stiff peaks — this creates the fluffiness.
Fold gently to avoid deflating the mixture.
Don’t overbake; they should be lightly golden.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For crispier texture, toast lightly before serving.
