This Blueberry Fluffy Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread is light, airy, and naturally gluten-free. It’s a delicious, low-carb treat that’s perfect for breakfast or a healthy snack. The combination of whipped egg whites and creamy cottage cheese creates a soft, cloud-like texture, while the juicy blueberries add a burst of natural sweetness.
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs, separated
- ½ cup cottage cheese, blended until smooth
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder (optional, for better structure)
- 1 teaspoon honey or a pinch of sweetener (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- Butter or coconut oil for greasing the baking sheet
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat & Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with butter or coconut oil.
Step 2: Whip the Egg Whites
- In a clean, dry mixing bowl, add the egg whites and cream of tartar.
- Using an electric mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form (about 3-5 minutes). This will create the fluffy texture.
Step 3: Mix the Cottage Cheese Base
- In a separate bowl, mix the blended cottage cheese, egg yolks, salt, cornstarch (if using), honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
Step 4: Fold the Mixtures Together
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture. Use a spatula and mix in small, slow motions to keep the batter airy. Do not overmix!
Step 5: Shape & Add Blueberries
- Scoop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small round mounds (about 4-5 inches wide).
- Gently press a few fresh blueberries into each mound.
Step 6: Bake & Cool
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and slightly firm.
- Turn off the oven and let the cloud bread rest inside with the door slightly open for 5 minutes.
- Remove and let cool for another 10 minutes before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
- Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
- Spread with cream cheese or Greek yogurt for a creamy topping.
- Pair with a cup of tea or coffee for a cozy snack.
