Description
Cloud Bread is a light and fluffy alternative to traditional bread, perfect for those looking for a low-carb option.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 3 tablespoons softened cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks, placing the whites in a mixing bowl.
- Add the cream of tartar to the egg whites and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, softened cream cheese, almond flour, nutritional yeast (if using), garlic powder (if using), and salt until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in three parts to maintain the airy texture.
- Scoop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, creating 6-8 rounded dollops.
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the buns feel firm to the touch.
- Let the sky buns cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a sweeter treat, add a tablespoon of sweetener and a splash of vanilla extract to the yolk mixture.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices, like Italian seasoning or paprika, for unique flavors.
