How to Make Keto Cottage Cheese Cinnamon Swirl Cloud Bread

PIN IT

Step 1 — Prepare the Pan

Line your loaf pan with parchment and lightly grease.
The batter is delicate, so parchment is your best friend.

Step 2 — Blend the Base

In a bowl or blender, combine:

• Cottage cheese
• Egg yolks
• Almond flour
• Vanilla
• Keto sweetener

Blend until creamy and smooth.

Step 3 — Whip the Egg Whites

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
This is what gives cloud bread its magical lift.

Step 4 — Fold Gently

Pour the cottage cheese mixture into the whipped egg whites.
Using a spatula, fold carefully — don’t deflate the fluff.

Step 5 — Make the Cinnamon Swirl

Mix melted butter, cinnamon, and keto brown sugar until smooth.

Step 6 — Layer & Swirl

Pour half the batter into the loaf pan.
Drizzle half the cinnamon swirl.
Add remaining batter.
Finish with swirl mixture.
Use a knife to create gentle loops and swirls.

Step 7 — Bake

Bake at 300°F (150°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and set.

Cloud bread doesn’t rise like normal bread — it puffs, sets, and becomes beautifully soufflé-like.

Step 8 — Cool Completely

This step is KEY.
Cloud bread firms up as it cools.
Warm = airy and fragile
Cool = sliceable, soft, and perfect

What to Serve With Cinnamon Cloud Bread

Oh, the possibilities…

• Butter + sugar-free maple syrup
• Greek yogurt + berries
• Keto cream cheese frosting
• Almond butter
• Fresh strawberries
• With your morning coffee (my favorite!)

For a brunch spread, pair with:

• Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Use very stiff egg whites — glossy and firm.
• Fold gently to keep the fluff.
• Almond flour is optional but helps structure.
• Cool fully before slicing — it’s fragile when hot.
• Use the lowest oven rack to prevent browning too quickly.
• Double the cinnamon swirl if you want it EXTRA cinnamon-roll flavors.

It’s pure magic — effortless, delicious, and comforting.
