I’m so excited to share today’s recipe with you guys. I’ve been trying not to get too anxious and wait to introduce this AH-MAZING waist-friendly bread. Well, if you’ve been following me for a while, you know much I love bread and pastries, basically any kind of fattening carbs. While I do enjoy bread rolls and pecan pie, I also try to balance out my meals every now and then. Take, for example, if I take a carb-loaded banana pineapple bread for breakfast, I do make it a point to take a healthier lunch like these vegan baked stuffed plantains.  It may not be that obvious, but I do eat healthy foods too. 😉 And today’s BREAD recipe is truly a gem! I have a couple of friends who are into the ketogenic diet and when one of them served this cloud bread during a visit, I jumped off my feet and asked her for the recipe. I mean, who doesn’t get too excited when you stuff yourself with a fluffy low-carb bread???

What is Cloud Bread?

Cloud bread, also known as oopsie bread, is a very versatile bread that is pretty simple to make, using an average of 4 ingredients including eggs, cream of cheese, cream of tartar, and salt, unless you like to add some herbs like rosemary and a bit of sugar to taste. Basically, it’s the easiest bread that can be a part of a healthy diet, especially for those who always crave carbs. It’s gluten-free, and protein-loaded, diet-friendly bread!

What Does Cloud Bread Taste Like? Does it Taste Like Bread?

Although cloud bread is an alternative to your usual doughy bread, it’s still right up my alley. It definitely has that distinct eggy taste, a bit like a popover, but more like a fluffy omelette without the filling. What I did is add more flavor into this healthy bread with rosemary, garlic, salt, and a tablespoon of sugar which is optional for those who wish to have it sugar-free. I tried making this without the sugar and it still tasted good. This girl here almost ate the whole batch before taking photos of it for the blog (sorry…).

Storage and Reheating Instructions

This cloud bread can be stored in a sealed container and in the fridge for 2-3 days or up to 3 months in the freezer. Don’t forget to put a layer of parchment paper between each bread to avoid them from sticking together. You can simply thaw it at room temperature or in the fridge and reheat them in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5 minutes.

Can You Toast Them?

Yes, you can toast these cloud bread, HOWEVER, you have to watch them very closely as it only takes a few seconds to toast them. Or else you’ll risk having ashes of cloud bread. Not fun! Make a big batch of these low-carb fluffy cloud bread here, store any leftover in the freezer, and use them when needed. You can eat them as-is, which make for a healthy replacement for buns and sandwiches for BLTs, as crusts for pizza bites, breakfast burritos – the possibilities are limitless! Now you can indulge in bread with fewer carbs!

How to Make Cloud Bread

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Prepare 2 baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper. Have ready two medium mixing bowls. Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks and place them in separate bowls. Add cream of tartar to egg whites, using a hand mixer whisk egg whites on high until soft peaks form when the beater is raised. Add cream cheese to egg yolks and sugar, if using any. Thoroughly mix using a mixer until very smooth and has no visible cream cheese. Add salt, herbs, and garlic. Carefully fold in egg whites mixture into cream cheese mixture. Try to deflate the egg whites as little as possible, you want it to be firm and foamy. Spoon about a 1/4 cup portion of batter onto the baking sheets. Be sure to leave space around each circle.

Bake for about 16 -20 minutes or until bread is slightly brown. The center should not jiggle when shaken. Bread should be golden on the outside and firm to the touch. Let it cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
