📋 What You’ll Need

Ingredients

• ½ cup cottage cheese
• 3 large eggs, separated
• ¼ tsp cream of tartar (for stability)
• ½ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt

Tools

• Large mixing bowl
• Hand mixer or stand mixer
• Rubber spatula
• Baking sheet
• Parchment paper
• Measuring spoons

⭐ Pro Tips

1. Blend cottage cheese first – If you want a smoother texture, blend or whisk it before adding to the batter.
2. Whip the egg whites well – The fluffier the egg whites, the fluffier the bread!
3. Don’t overmix – Gently fold the egg whites into the batter to keep the air bubbles intact.
4. Use parchment paper – This prevents sticking and helps the bread bake evenly.
5. Let it cool before removing – This helps the structure set and prevents deflation.

🔄 Substitutions & Variations

• No cream of tartar? Use ½ tsp lemon juice or vinegar instead.
• Want it savory? Add garlic powder, cheese, or fresh herbs.
• Prefer it sweet? Mix in 1 tbsp honey or vanilla extract.

⏳ Make-Ahead Tips

• Store in an airtight container at room temp for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
• Freeze for later – Wrap individual pieces and freeze for up to 3 months.

👩‍🍳 How to Make Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread

1. Separate the Eggs

Crack the eggs and place the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.

2. Whip the Egg Whites

In a large mixing bowl, add egg whites and cream of tartar. Use a hand mixer to whip until stiff peaks form.

In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks, cottage cheese, baking powder, and salt until smooth.

4. Fold the Egg Whites into the Yolks

Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture, being careful not to deflate them.

5. Scoop onto a Baking Sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then spoon the batter into round, fluffy mounds.

6. Bake Until Golden Brown

Bake at 300°F (150°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and set.

7. Cool & Enjoy!

Let the bread cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then serve warm or store for later.
