What’s Cloud Bread?

Cloud Bread is a popular bread recipe with a light and fluffy texture that makes it resembles clouds, hence the name.

Cloud bread is typically made with eggs and cheese and no flour. Because of the lack of flour, it contains very few carbs which makes it a hallmark of the keto diet.

Cloud bread remains relatively flat, making it perfect for low-carb sandwiches and burgers.

In fact, you can even use the batter to make Cloud Bread Pizza.

How To Make Cloud Bread

Since it only takes 3 ingredients to make this cloud bread recipe, it’s easy to make even for baking beginners.

Ingredients

• Eggs – I prefer to use free-range eggs as they give the best taste to baking recipes.
• Cream Cheese – Cream cheese is a keto-friendly cheese. It makes this recipe fluffy and smooth.
• Cream Of Tartar – Cream of Tartar is the secret ingredient that gives this 3-ingredient cloud bread its cloudy texture by keeping the beaten egg white airy for longer.

Making Cloud Bread

Start the cloud bread recipe by splitting the egg yolks from the egg whites and placing the egg whites in a glass bowl, or in the bowl of your stand mixer, if you have one.

Keep the egg yolks in another bowl at room temperature. They won’t stay there for very long, so it’s safe.

Beat the egg whites and the cream of tartar with an electric beater or with the beating attachment of your stand mixer until a fluffy stiff peak forms.

The cream of tartar helps maintain the stiffness and airiness of the beaten eggs.

In another large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and egg yolk with the same beater until it becomes creamy and no lumps of cream cheese are showing.

Gently fold the fluffed egg whites into the beaten egg yolk mixture. The mixture will deflate a little but keep mixing until you can’t see any more egg white.

Baking Cloud Bread

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet or two large sheets with some lightly oiled parchment paper.

Scoop 1/4 cup of cloud bread batter per bread with a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop.

Drop the cloud bread dough onto the parchment paper and spread it by applying a circular motion to form a thin 5-inch circle (12cm).

Make more cloud bread rolls with the remaining batter until no batter is left. Make sure to leave half a thumb of space between each bread so they don’t stick when they expand slightly.

Bake the cloud bread for 20 to 25 minutes at 300°F (150°C) until golden.

Let the cloud bread rolls cool down for a few minutes on the sheet then transfer them to a cooling rack for a few more minutes of cooling.
