Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs (separated)
- ½ cup cottage cheese (blended until smooth)
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar (to stabilize egg whites)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder (optional, for structure)
- 1 teaspoon honey or a pinch of sweetener (optional, for a hint of sweetness)
Optional Substitutions
- Instead of cottage cheese, you can use ricotta cheese or Greek yogurt.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute cottage cheese with plant-based cream cheese.
- If you’re avoiding cornstarch, simply leave it out, but note that it helps give the bread more structure.
Instructions
Step1: Prepare the Ingredients
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Separate the egg whites and yolks into two different bowls.
Step2: Whip the Egg Whites
- Add cream of tartar to the egg whites.
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. This step is crucial for achieving a light and airy texture.
Step3: Mix the Yolks and Cottage Cheese
- In the bowl with the egg yolks, add the blended cottage cheese, salt, cornstarch (if using), and honey or sweetener (if using).
- Mix until smooth and fully combined.
Step4: Combine the Mixtures
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk and cottage cheese mixture in three parts.
- Use a spatula to fold carefully, ensuring that as much air as possible is retained for a fluffy texture.
Step5: Shape the Cloud Bread
- Scoop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 6-8 small rounds or larger pieces, depending on your preference.
- Use the back of a spoon to shape them evenly.
Step6: Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown and set.
- Remove from the oven and let the cloud bread cool completely before serving.

- Use Room-Temperature Eggs – They whip better and create more volume.
- Don’t Overfold – Overmixing can deflate the airiness. Fold just until combined.
- Bake Immediately – The batter will lose volume if it sits too long.
- Use Fresh Ingredients – Fresh cottage cheese and eggs ensure the best flavor and texture.
