Here’s your Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread recipe with clear instructions to ensure light, airy perfection! ☁️🧀🍞
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs, separated 🥚
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese (full-fat for best texture) 🧀
- 1/4 tsp cream of tartar (stabilizes egg whites) 🌪️
- 1 tbsp almond flour (optional, for structure) 🌰
- 1 tbsp coconut flour (optional, for slight sweetness) 🥥
- (Salt or sweetener to taste, if desired)
Instructions:
1️⃣ Prep: Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Whip Egg Whites:
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with a mixer until stiff peaks form (about 3-4 mins). Set aside.
3️⃣ Blend Yolks & Cottage Cheese:
- In a separate bowl, blend egg yolks, cottage cheese, almond flour, and coconut flour until smooth.
4️⃣ Fold Together:
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in 2 batches, keeping the air intact. Do not overmix!
5️⃣ Shape & Bake:
- Scoop mounds (~1/4 cup each) onto the baking sheet. Flatten slightly into cloud shapes.
- Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and springy.
6️⃣ Cool & Enjoy!
- Let cool 5 mins before lifting. Best eaten fresh (they may deflate slightly as they cool).
Tips:
✨ Flavor Boost: Add garlic powder, herbs, or cinnamon + sweetener for savory/sweet versions.
✨ Storage: Keep in an airtight container for 1-2 days (reheat briefly to refresh texture).
✨ No Substitutes: Cream of tartar is key for stability—don’t skip it!
