Egg Mixture:
Cottage Cheese Blend:
- ½ cup full-fat cottage cheese (drained well and blended until smooth)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for structure and texture)
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar (stabilizes egg whites)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sweetener (optional, for a mild sweetness)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Cottage Cheese: Blend the drained cottage cheese in a food processor or with an immersion blender until completely smooth.
- Whip Egg Whites: In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
- Mix 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.
- Fold Ingredients: Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites using a spatula. Mix carefully to maintain as much air as possible.
- Add Blueberries: Fold in the blueberries, distributing them evenly without deflating the batter.
- Bake: Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and firm.
- Cool: Let the cloud bread cool for a few minutes before transferring to a rack. The texture will firm up as it cools.
