Print Recipe

A light, airy, and low-carb breakfast sandwich featuring fluffy cloud bread made from whipped egg whites and cheese, perfect for keto and gluten-free diets.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs, separated (room temperature preferred)
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar or mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Pinch of xanthan gum (optional, for extra stability)
  • Butter or oil for greasing the baking sheet
  • For the filling: 2 eggs (fried or scrambled), extra cheese slice, optional bacon or avocado slices

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  2. Separate the eggs carefully into two large bowls, keeping yolks and whites separate.
  3. Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. In the other bowl, combine egg yolks, softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture using a spatula, about 10 slow, gentle folds to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  6. Spoon the batter onto the baking sheet, forming 3-4 round mounds about 3-4 inches in diameter. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden and firm but soft to the touch.
  8. While baking, cook your eggs to preference and prepare any extras like bacon or avocado slices.
  9. Once cloud bread has cooled slightly, assemble the sandwich by layering cooked egg, cheese slice, and extras between two cloud bread slices.
  10. Toast the assembled sandwich in a skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until cheese is melty and bread is slightly crisp.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better whipping. Be careful to fold egg whites gently to preserve fluffiness. If cloud bread browns too quickly, tent with foil. Avoid microwaving leftovers to prevent rubbery texture. Can substitute cream cheese with dairy-free alternatives for a dairy-free version.
