Ingredients
-
3 large eggs, separated
-
¼ cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
-
2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
-
½ cup fresh blueberries
-
¼ tsp cream of tartar (helps stabilize the egg whites)
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt
Optional Add-ins:
-
Lemon zest for a fresh, citrusy note
-
A sprinkle of powdered sugar for dusting
-
Extra blueberries for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Whip the Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, add egg whites and cream of tartar.
Beat with a mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form—this usually takes about 3–4 minutes.
Set aside.
Step 3: Make the Batter
In another bowl, mix the egg yolks, cottage cheese, vanilla extract, honey (if using), and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Gently fold in the whipped egg whites, a little at a time, being careful not to deflate them.
Step 4: Add the Blueberries
Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Step 5: Shape the Clouds
Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet into 6–8 mounds, spacing them apart.
Use the back of a spoon to shape them slightly into thick rounds.
Step 6: Bake
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the cloud breads are set and lightly golden.
Step 7: Cool & Serve
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
Serve warm or at room temperature with extra blueberries or a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
Use Fresh Eggs – They whip better for fluffier bread.
Don’t Overmix – Gently fold to keep as much air in the batter as possible.
Use Full-Fat Cottage Cheese – For a creamier flavor and texture.
Keep an Eye on the Oven – Bake until just golden for perfect cloud bread.
Eat Fresh – Best enjoyed the same day for ultimate fluffiness.
