Keto Cloud Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 3 oz (about 85g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sweetener (like Stevia, Monk Fruit, or Erythritol) (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or onion powder (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Separate the eggs: Carefully separate the egg whites from the egg yolks into two separate bowls.
-
Beat the egg whites: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. This will take around 3–5 minutes.
-
Mix the egg yolks and cream cheese: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, softened cream cheese, baking powder, and any optional seasonings or sweeteners until smooth.
-
Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites. Be careful not to deflate the whites. Use a spatula to combine them thoroughly.
-
Scoop onto baking sheet: Spoon the batter onto the parchment paper, forming 6–8 rounds, about 3–4 inches in diameter. Flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon.
-
Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the cloud breads are golden brown and set in the middle.
-
Cool on a wire rack before serving. These are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a couple of days in the fridge.
Tips:
- If you’d like a slightly sweet version, you can add a little bit of your favorite keto-friendly sweetener.
- For savory flavor, adding garlic powder or fresh herbs can make them more versatile.
This cloud bread is a great substitute for regular bread and works perfectly for sandwiches, burgers, or even just as a snack with butter or cheese!
