How to Make Cloud Bread

This recipe is very simple, but the key is whipping the egg whites correctly.

Step 1 – Preheat Oven

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

Step 2 – Separate Eggs

Separate egg whites and egg yolks into two bowls.

Step 3 – Mix Yolks

In the yolk bowl, mix:

  • Egg yolks
  • Cream cheese or Greek yogurt
  • Salt

Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 4 – Whip Egg Whites

Add cream of tartar to egg whites and whip until stiff peaks form. This step is very important because it creates the fluffy texture.

Step 5 – Fold Mixture

Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites. Do not overmix or the batter will deflate.

Step 6 – Shape Bread

Spoon the mixture into small bread rounds on the baking sheet.

Step 7 – Bake

Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and set.

Let cool before removing from the baking sheet.
