Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 3 tablespoons cream cheese (softened) or plain Greek yogurt Softened for easier mixing
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
Optional Seasoning
  • 1 pinch salt Highly recommended
  • any seasoning you love Customize for flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 300 F (150 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the eggs, placing the whites in one mixing bowl and the yolks in another.
  3. Add the cream cheese to the yolks and mix until smooth. Then mix in the baking powder. Optionally, microwave the cream cheese for 10 seconds to ease blending.
Whipping and Folding
  1. Whip the egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form, taking about 3 to 6 minutes.
  2. Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites using a spatula, carefully to retain air.
Baking
  1. Using a spoon or scoop, form 6 to 8 mounds on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tops are golden.
  3. Allow the cloud bread to cool for a few minutes before removing from the baking sheet.

Notes

Cloud bread is best the same day it is made. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Best served with fillings that are not too wet.
