Preparation Steps

Preparing Egg Whites
Separate cold eggs, allowing whites to reach room temperature. Use spotlessly clean equipment. Begin beating slowly, increase speed gradually. Add cream of tartar at foamy stage. Beat to firm peaks.
Making Base Mixture
Process cottage cheese until completely smooth. Beat egg yolks until light. Combine with cottage cheese, honey, and salt. Incorporate cornstarch if using.
Combining Mixtures
Fold one-third whites into base mixture. Add remaining whites in two batches using figure-eight motion. Incorporate just until mixed.
Berry Addition
Ensure fresh berries are dry before adding. Use frozen berries straight from freezer. Distribute gently through mixture.

Proper egg white technique is crucial for success. Regular practice leads to consistently light, airy results that define true cloud bread.

Temperature Guidelines

Using ingredients at room temperature significantly improves egg white volume. Allow all components to warm naturally before beginning preparation.

Proper Storage

Store briefly in paper rather than plastic bags to maintain optimal texture. Best consumed within several hours of baking.

This recipe demonstrates how alternative baking methods can produce exceptional results. Each batch provides an opportunity to perfect technique while exploring variations in flavors and additions.

Ingredients

→ Base Ingredients

01 Take 3 large eggs and split the yolks from the whites.
02 Half a cup of cottage cheese, blended until velvety smooth.
03 A quarter teaspoon of cream of tartar for the texture.
04 Add a little salt—half a teaspoon is enough.

→ Optional Ingredients

05 A teaspoon of honey or a sprinkle of any sweetener.
06 One tablespoon of either cornstarch or arrowroot powder.

→ Fruit

07 Roughly a quarter cup of blueberries, either frozen or fresh. Chop them if they’re on the bigger side.

Instructions

Step 01

Heat your oven up to 300°F (or 150°C). Get a baking sheet ready with parchment paper on it.

Step 02

Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar together in a big bowl until those peaks are nice and stiff.

Step 03

In a second bowl, mix up the egg yolks, your blended cottage cheese, salt, and any honey or sweetener if you like it a little sweet.

Step 04

If you’re using it, gently stir in the cornstarch so the mixture’s smooth.

Step 05

Slowly fold the whipped-up egg whites into the yolk mixture. Be gentle—it should stay nice and fluffy.

Step 06

Fold in the blueberries. Make sure they’re spread throughout.

Step 07

Scoop little mounds of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Let them bake for about 25 to 30 minutes until you see a golden brown color.

Step 08

Once baked, let the cloud bread cool down a bit before digging in.

Notes

  1. Skip the honey and cornstarch if you’re aiming for keto.
  2. Keep leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge. They’ll stay good for about three days.
  3. You can freeze these for one month.
  4. Reheat at 250°F to get that soft and fluffy texture back.
