Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup (75 g) fresh blueberries
Sweeteners and Flavorings:
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) vanilla extract
Stabilizing Ingredients:
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) cream of tartar
Instructions
- Prepare the oven environment by setting the temperature to 300F (150C) and positioning a parchment-lined baking sheet for the cloud bread.
- Whip egg whites with cream of tartar using an electric mixer, creating a voluminous meringue-like texture with stiff, glossy peaks that stand upright.
- Create a smooth, creamy base by whisking egg yolks with cottage cheese, incorporating honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until thoroughly blended.
- Delicately integrate the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture, using a gentle folding technique to maintain the airy texture without deflating the mixture.
- Gently distribute fresh blueberries throughout the cloud bread batter, ensuring even dispersion without crushing the fruit.
- Carefully distribute dollops of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping small, uniform rounds with soft peaks and peaks.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, watching for a delicate golden-brown coloration that indicates perfect doneness and crisp edges.
- Allow the cloud bread to cool completely on the baking sheet, which helps set the delicate texture and enhances the overall structural integrity.
Notes
- Whip egg whites to absolute stiffness for maximum cloud-like texture, ensuring peaks stand straight up when beater is lifted.
- Fold ingredients gently to preserve the delicate air bubbles, maintaining the bread’s signature fluffy consistency.
- Use fresh, ripe blueberries for intense flavor and vibrant color throughout the cloud bread.
- Opt for low-fat cottage cheese to reduce overall calories while keeping the protein content high.
