Description
Cloud Bread is a light, fluffy, and whimsical treat made from whipped egg whites, sugar, and cornstarch. Naturally gluten-free and low-carb, it’s easy to customize with flavors or colors and perfect for a fun snack, breakfast, or dessert.
Ingredients
3 large egg whites
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Optional: food coloring (gel or liquid)
Optional: flavor extracts (vanilla, almond, etc.)
Instructions
- Carefully separate egg whites from yolks, ensuring no yolk gets into the whites.
- Add cream of tartar to the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl.
- Whip egg whites on medium speed until foamy.
- Gradually add sugar while whipping until fully incorporated.
- Increase speed to high and whip until stiff, glossy peaks form (don’t overwhip).
- Gently fold in cornstarch with a spatula.
- If desired, fold in food coloring or flavor extract.
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spoon mixture into 3–4 inch mounds on the sheet, leaving space between them.
- Bake 20–25 minutes until lightly golden and set.
- Cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
Add vanilla or almond extract for extra flavor.
Swirl in pastel food coloring for a colorful twist.
Dust with cinnamon sugar for a sweet version.
For savory bread, skip sugar and add garlic powder, herbs, or cheese.
Best eaten fresh, as it tends to get sticky when stored.
