Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp cream cheese (or Greek yogurt)
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Ingredients

  • ½ tsp garlic powder for savory flair
  • 1 tbsp grated parmesan for texture
  • A sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Set your oven to 300°F (150°C) to ensure the cloud bread puffs up without burning. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; this prevents sticking and helps with even baking.
  2. Separate the Eggs: Carefully separate the egg whites and yolks into two different bowls, making sure no yolk contaminates the whites so they can whip to stiff peaks properly.
  3. Mix the Yolks: Add the cream cheese, baking powder, and salt to the yolks. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy without lumps. Using a hand mixer can help achieve a silky texture.
  4. Beat the Whites: Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This means when you lift the beaters, the peaks hold their shape firmly, which is key for the airy texture.
  5. Combine (Gently!): Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in batches, using a gentle folding motion to maintain as much air as possible for fluffiness.
  6. Scoop and Shape: Using a spoon, scoop the batter into 6 to 8 rounds on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each as they will spread slightly.
  7. Bake It Up: Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown and puffed up. Avoid opening the oven door frequently to prevent deflation. Let the cloud breads cool for 5 to 10 minutes before handling.

Notes

  • Using cream cheese gives a richer flavor, but Greek yogurt is a good substitute for a lighter version.
  • Make sure egg whites are at room temperature for better whipping results.
  • Do not overmix when folding to retain maximum airiness.
  • Add optional spices like garlic powder or parmesan for enhanced taste.
  • Store leftover cloud bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
