Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs (separated)
  • 1/2 cup full-fat cottage cheese (drained well and blended until smooth)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for structure and texture)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (stabilizes egg whites)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sweetener (optional, for a mild sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Drain Cottage Cheese: Simply tilt the container and pour off any extra liquid, or use a fine-mesh strainer if needed. If your cottage cheese is already thick, you can blend it as is!
  3. Blend Cottage Cheese: Blend the drained cottage cheese in a food processor or with an immersion blender until completely smooth.
  4. Beat Egg Whites: In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. This creates the light, fluffy texture.
  5. Mix Yolks and Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, creamy blended cottage cheese, vanilla extract (if using), lemon zest (if using), sweetener, and cornstarch until well combined.
  6. Fold Mixtures: Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites using a spatula. Mix carefully to maintain as much air as possible.
  7. Add Blueberries: Fold in the blueberries, distributing them evenly without deflating the batter.
  8. Scoop Batter: Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and firm.
  10. Cool: Let the cloud bread cool for a few minutes before transferring to a rack. The texture will firm up as it cools, so don’t worry if they feel soft at first!

Notes

  • Drain cottage cheese well for best texture.
  • Be gentle when folding to keep the batter airy.
  • Cooling helps the bread firm up properly.
