Cloud Bread (Flourless)
What you'll need:
4 large eggs, separated
Â
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Â
2 ounces cream cheese
Â
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
Â
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Â
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Method:
1.Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
Â
2.Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Â
3.Separate the egg whites and egg yolks. Place the whites in a stand mixer with a whip attachment. Add the cream of tartar and beat on high until the froth turns into firm meringue peaks. Move to a separate bowl.
Â
4.Place the cream cheese in the empty stand mixing bowl. Beat on high to soften. Then add the egg yolks one at a time to incorporate. Scrape the bowl and beat until the mixture is completely smooth. Then beat in the mixed herbs, salt, and garlic powder..
Â
5.Gently fold the firm meringue into the yolk mixture. Try to deflate the meringue as little as possible, so the mixture is still firm and foamy.
Â
6.Spoon 1/4 cup portions of the foam onto the baking sheets and spread into even 4-inch circles, 3/4 inch high. Make sure to leave space around each circle.
Â
7.Bake for up to 30 minutes. The bread should be golden on the outside and firm. The centre should not jiggle when shaken.
Â
8.Cool for several minutes on the baking sheets, then move and serve!
