INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED:

• 3 large eggs, separated
• 1/4 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
• 1/3 cup fresh blueberries

HOW TO MAKE COTTAGE CHEESE BLUEBERRY CLOUD BREAD:

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat the Oven and Prep Your Pan

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.

2. Blend the Yolks and Cottage Cheese

In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks together with the cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and honey (if using) until smooth. You can also blend this in a food processor or with an immersion blender to get it extra silky.

3. Whip the Egg Whites

In a separate large bowl, add the egg whites and cream of tartar. Using an electric mixer, beat until stiff peaks form. This will take about 3–4 minutes. The mixture should hold its shape when you lift the beaters.

4. Fold the Mixtures Together

Gently fold the cottage cheese yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites—use slow, folding motions rather than stirring.

5. Add the Blueberries

Once the mixture is mostly combined, sprinkle in the blueberries and gently fold them in. Try not to overmix, or the batter will lose its airy structure.

6. Spoon and Shape

Spoon the batter onto your prepared baking sheet in mounds—about 6–8 rounds depending on your preferred size. Use the back of a spoon to shape them slightly, leaving space in between.

7. Bake Until Golden

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly crisp. They’ll feel soft and cloud-like to the touch.

8. Cool and Serve

Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature, plain or with a touch of nut butter or yogurt on the side.

HELPFUL TIPS:

• For sweeter bread, add a little more honey or sprinkle with cinnamon before baking.
• Gently pat dry your blueberries if they’re extra juicy to avoid excess moisture.
• Use a silicone mat or well-greased parchment paper to prevent sticking.
• Don’t overbake—cloud bread should stay soft and fluffy, not dry or crisp.
• Store extras in the fridge and reheat gently in the toaster oven or microwave.
