Description
This easy cloud bread recipe uses just three ingredients to create a light, fluffy, and low-carb snack that’s perfect for weight loss or healthy eating. It’s naturally gluten-free, keto-friendly, and comes together in under 30 minutes for a guilt-free treat.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 3 tablespoons (about 45g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Carefully separate 3 large eggs, placing yolks in one bowl and whites in another. Let the whites come to room temperature for about 10 minutes.
- Add 3 tablespoons softened cream cheese to the yolks. Beat with a mixer or whisk until smooth and fully blended. Mix in any optional sweetener or herbs if desired.
- Add 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar to the egg whites. Using clean, dry beaters, beat on high speed until stiff peaks form (about 3-5 minutes).
- Gently scoop 1/3 of the whipped whites into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Then, add the yolk mixture back into the whites and fold with a spatula until just combined and fluffy.
- Spoon the batter onto the lined baking sheet, making 6 even rounds (about 3-4 inches across). Smooth the tops and leave space between each.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top and just set.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheet for 3-5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm or store as desired.
Notes
For best results, make sure your mixing bowls and beaters are completely clean and dry before whipping egg whites. Gently fold the mixtures to keep the batter airy. Optional: Add a pinch of salt, sweetener, or herbs for flavor variations. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to a month.
