Ingredients
Cloud Bread Base
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120g) cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup (75g) fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a blender, combine the eggs and cottage cheese. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated, ensuring there are no lumps for a uniform texture.
- Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries into the batter to avoid breaking them, distributing the fruit evenly throughout.
- Bake the Cloud Bread: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon the batter onto the sheet in small, round mounds about 3 to 4 inches in diameter, leaving space between them.

- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature as a light, protein-packed treat.
Notes
- Use fresh blueberries for best flavor and texture; frozen can be used but may release extra moisture.
- For a sweeter bread, consider adding a teaspoon of honey or vanilla extract to the batter before blending.
- Ensure eggs are well blended with cottage cheese to achieve a fluffy texture.
- Allow bread to cool slightly to set properly and avoid crumbling.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
