Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (225g) full-fat cottage cheese (drained if watery)
- 4 large eggs, separated
- ¼ tsp cream of tartar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup or sugar (optional, omit for keto)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, do not thaw)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Blend base: In a food processor or blender, combine cottage cheese, egg yolks, sweetener (if using), vanilla, and salt. Blend until completely smooth (~1–2 min).
- Whip whites: In a clean bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Fold together: Gently fold whipped egg whites into cottage cheese mixture in 3 additions—keep it airy!
- Add blueberries: Fold in blueberries gently (they’ll sink slightly—that’s okay).
- Shape: Spoon or pipe 6–8 mounds onto baking sheet (or spread into a loaf shape).
- Bake 25–30 minutes, until golden and firm to the touch.
- Cool completely on pan before handling (cloud bread is delicate when warm).
💡 Pro Tips:
– For keto version, skip sweetener or use 1–2 drops liquid stevia.
– Use full-fat cottage cheese for best texture and flavor.
– Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for 1 month.
