Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture:
- 3 large eggs, separated
Cottage Cheese Blend:
- ½ cup cottage cheese, blended until smooth
Additional Ingredients:
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder (optional, for added structure)
- 1 teaspoon honey or a pinch of sweetener (optional)
- ¼ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Beat Egg Whites: In a clean, dry mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, approximately 3–4 minutes.
- Prepare Egg Yolk Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, blended cottage cheese, salt, cornstarch (if using), and honey or sweetener until smooth.
- Fold Mixtures: Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites using a spatula, taking care not to deflate the mixture.
- Form Batter: Scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 6–8 round mounds about 3 inches wide.
- Add Blueberries: Evenly distribute the blueberries on top of each mound, pressing them in slightly to ensure they adhere.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the cloud bread is golden and firm to the touch.
- Cool: Allow the cloud bread to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You can customize the sweetness level by adjusting the amount of honey or sweetener used.
- This cloud bread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a day or two.
