Ingredients
  

For the Cloud Bread
  • 1 cup cottage cheese full fat, drained
  • 4 eggs separated
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Electric mixer
  • Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine the drained cottage cheese and egg yolks. Mix until smooth. You can use a fork or a hand mixer on low speed.
  3. In a separate, clean bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold about one-third of the beaten egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Spoon mounds of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, forming about 8 equal-sized rounds.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cloud bread is lightly golden and firm to the touch.
  7. Let the cloud bread cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.

Notes

Store cooled cloud bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
