This light and airy cloud bread is a perfect high-protein, low-carb snack that delivers approximately 15 grams of protein per serving, making it an excellent choice for muscle recovery and sustained energy. Its delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture offers a satisfying combination of fluffiness and slight chew, with a subtly sweet and savory flavor that pairs well with both sweet spreads and savory toppings. Rich in protein and low in calories, it's an ideal option for those looking to boost their macros without sacrificing taste or texture. Enjoy this versatile bread as a post-workout treat, a quick breakfast, or as part of meal prep to keep your nutrition on track throughout the week. For gluten-free options, simply ensure that any flavorings or toppings are gluten-free, and vegans can substitute egg whites with aquafaba or other plant-based foams. To achieve the best rise and fluffiness, make sure your egg whites are whipped to stiff peaks and gently fold in any additional ingredients to avoid deflating the batter. This cloud bread is not only satisfying and protein-packed but also easy to customize with your favorite herbs, spices, or sweeteners for a personalized touch.

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

2

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.

3

In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks, cream cheese, and protein powder until smooth.

4

Gently fold the yolk mixture into the egg whites until just combined, being careful not to deflate the whites.

5

Spoon the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming small circles. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

6

Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

TROUBLESHOOTING

My breads are too dry

Try adding 1-2 tablespoons more liquid (milk, yogurt, or egg whites). Also ensure you're not over-measuring the protein powder - use the scoop and level method.

They didn't rise properly

Check your baking powder is fresh (test by adding to hot water - it should bubble vigorously). Also, don't overmix the batter as this can deflate the air bubbles.

The texture is rubbery

This usually means too much protein powder or overbaking. Reduce baking time by 2-3 minutes and check doneness with a toothpick.
