Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese or Greek yogurt
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar or sweetener of choice (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Separate the Eggs
Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks into two different bowls. Make sure no yolk is mixed with the whites to ensure they whip up properly.
Step 3: Whip the Egg Whites
Add the cream of tartar to the egg whites. Using an electric mixer, whisk until stiff peaks form. This will take about 3-5 minutes. The mixture should be glossy and hold peaks when you lift the beaters.
Step 4: Mix the Yolks
In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks with cream cheese or Greek yogurt, sweetener, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Step 5: Fold Together
Gently fold the yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites. Use a spatula to avoid deflating the fluffy whites. Continue folding until no streaks remain.
Step 6: Shape and Bake
Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, creating small mounds about 4 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Leave space between each mound as they will spread slightly during baking.
Step 7: Bake to Perfection
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.
Step 8: Cool and Enjoy
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy your cloud bread fresh, or store in an airtight container for later use.
