Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.
- Beat the egg whites using an electric mixer until they become foamy. Add the cream of tartar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Mix the yolks with cottage cheese, baking powder, and salt until smooth.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the batter.
- Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in small rounds, leaving space between each.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cloud bread turns golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Notes
- Herb and garlic – Add dried herbs, minced garlic, or shredded cheese for a savory twist.
- Sweet version – Mix in a touch of honey, cinnamon, or vanilla extract for a sweeter option.
- Higher protein – Use Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese for an extra protein boost.
- Dairy-free – Substitute cottage cheese with dairy-free alternatives like cashew or almond-based cheese.
