Ingredients
Scale
Cloud Bread
- 3 large eggs (separated)
- 3 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tbsp fresh chopped herbs (chives, parsley)
- Pinch salt
Sandwich Fillings (optional)
- Turkey slices
- Tomato slices
- Arugula leaves
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 300 °F (150 °C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Whip Egg Whites: In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. This creates the airy structure that makes the cloud bread so light.
- Mix Yolks and Cream Cheese: In another bowl, whip the egg yolks together with the softened cream cheese and chopped fresh herbs until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Fold Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk and cream cheese mixture. Be careful to maintain as much airiness as possible for a fluffy texture.
- Spoon and Shape: Spoon the mixture into eight equal rounds on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake: Bake the rounds at 300 °F for about 20 minutes or until they turn golden and slightly firm to the touch.
- Cool and Assemble: Allow the cloud breads to cool slightly. Then use them to assemble sandwiches with your choice of fillings, such as turkey slices, fresh tomato, and arugula for a fresh and delicious meal.
Notes
- The egg whites must be beaten until stiff peaks form to ensure the cloud bread is airy and fluffy.
- Folding the mixtures gently is key to maintaining the light texture.
- Feel free to customize the sandwich fillings with your favorite meats, vegetables, or spreads.
- Cloud bread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- This recipe is naturally low-carb and gluten-free, making it suitable for keto and gluten-free diets.
