Ingredients for Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread

  • 3 large eggs, separated

  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar (optional, helps stabilize egg whites)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter (optional, for richness)

How to Make Easy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread

  1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. In the bowl with the yolks, combine cottage cheese, baking powder, olive oil if you are using it, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth.
  4. In the bowl with the egg whites, add cream of tartar if using, and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  5. Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in small batches. Take care not to deflate the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter onto the baking sheet in six equal portions. Shape each mound slightly to resemble bread.
  7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cloud bread turns golden brown and is set.
  8. Allow to cool for a few minutes before removing from the baking sheet. Serve warm or keep stored in an airtight container.
