Description

Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread is a light, airy, and protein-packed bread alternative perfect for breakfast, snacks, or sandwiches. Combining creamy cottage cheese with whipped egg whites and baking powder, it produces a soft, pillowy texture with low carbohydrates. Easy to make with simple ingredients, this cloud bread is versatile and ideal for those seeking a wholesome, gluten-free bread substitute.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt

Optional Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons almond flour (optional, for added texture and nutty flavor)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cottage Cheese Blend: Place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth to eliminate lumps and create a silky base for your batter.
  2. Whip Up the Egg Whites: Separate the eggs carefully, ensuring no yolk contaminates the whites. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, creating a fluffy foam that provides the airy texture.
  3. Combine the Ingredients: Gently fold the smooth cottage cheese mixture and egg yolks together. Then carefully fold in the beaten egg whites, baking powder, salt, and almond flour (if using), taking care not to deflate the mixture.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Using a spoon or scoop, dollop the batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the bread is golden and puffed up.
  5. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cloud bread cool slightly on a wire rack to set its delicate texture before serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for better moisture and richer flavor, yielding softer bread.
  • Separate eggs carefully to avoid yolk in whites, ensuring maximum volume when whipping.
  • Fold ingredients gently with a spatula to retain air and lightness.
  • Do not overbake to keep the bread moist and soft.
  • Serve fresh on the day it is made for the best texture and taste.
