Cloud Bread Savory Toast (Printable Version)

Airy cloud bread flavored with garlic, Parmesan, and fresh herbs for a light, gluten-free snack.

# What You'll Need:

→ Egg Mixture

01 - 3 large eggs, separated
02 - 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

→ Cheese & Flavorings

03 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 0.88 oz)
04 - 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
05 - 1 garlic clove, minced
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
07 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
08 - 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
09 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
10 - 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Preheat oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a clean, dry bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
03 - Whisk together egg yolks, softened cream cheese, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, chopped chives, parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
04 - Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture in three additions, ensuring the batter remains airy.
05 - Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping six even rounds approximately 1/2 inch thick.
06 - Bake for 25 minutes or until the rounds are golden brown and set.
07 - Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for optimal texture.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It's deceptively simple—just eggs and a handful of ingredients, but tastes like you spent hours fussing.
  • Gluten-free and low-carb without tasting like a compromise.
  • Ready in under 45 minutes, including oven time.
02 -
  • Egg whites are temperamental—any trace of yolk or oil will prevent them from whipping properly, so take the time to separate them carefully.
  • Folding is everything; rough handling deflates the batter and you end up with dense little bread pucks instead of airy clouds.
03 -
  • Let your eggs sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before separating them—they whip faster and more completely than cold eggs.
  • Use a rubber spatula for folding, not a whisk; it's gentler and easier to control.
