Print Recipe

Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread is a light, airy, and protein-packed alternative to traditional bread. Made with simple, wholesome ingredients, this low-carb, gluten-free bread is perfect for anyone following a keto diet, gluten-free lifestyle, or looking for a healthier bread substitute. Unlike regular cloud bread, this version uses cottage cheese instead of cream cheese, resulting in a softer, less dense texture with higher protein content.

This versatile bread can be enjoyed in many ways—as a sandwich base, crispy toast, or even a low-carb pizza crust. With minimal prep and only a handful of ingredients, it’s an easy and delicious addition to your weekly meal plan!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cottage cheese, baking powder, and salt until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the cottage cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the batter.
  5. Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small rounds.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and set.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

✔ Use Fresh Eggs – Egg whites whip up best when they’re fresh and at room temperature.
✔ Beat Egg Whites to Stiff Peaks – This is crucial for achieving that fluffy, cloud-like texture.
✔ Fold Gently – Be careful not to overmix, or you’ll deflate the egg whites, making the bread flat instead of fluffy.
✔ Store Properly – Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 day, in the fridge for 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
✔ Reheat the Right Way – Toast in an oven or air fryer to bring back crispiness, or microwave for a soft and warm texture.
