Cloud Bread

Delicious, fluffy cloud bread is the perfect low carb and keto bread alternative. Great for sandwiches, burgers, even desserts!

Cloud Bread Recipe

The best thing about this cloud bread is the AMAZING smell that fills your kitchen when you bake it. It actually smells like bread baking in your oven!

The second best thing: you can comfortably hold your hamburger in your hands (no need for a knife and a fork!), and make great sandwiches.

What’s not so great about this low carb and keto cloud bread recipe? It’s quite a bit of work. Not that it’s difficult. But any recipe that requires separating eggs and whipping the egg whites, then carefully folding them into a batter, is an involved recipe that requires patience, which I severely lack.

So I almost always default to the super easy 90 second keto bread.

But when I do have the patience, which usually happens on long winter weekends when we’re home all day, I make cloud bread and then I’m rewarded with the best (in my opinion) low carb bread alternative.

I usually make cloud bread with plain, full fat Greek yogurt, because this is an ingredient that I always have on hand. I’m fairly certain you could use the same amount (1/4 cup, 4 tablespoons) of sour cream, cottage cheese or mayonnaise. They all seem interchangeable when I look up recipes online.

This cloud bread recipe makes between 10-12 cloud breads. It’s usually 10, but today I got 11, and sometimes I get 12. It all depends on how generous (or stingy) you are when scooping the batter out into the pan.

When I make cloud bread for burgers, like I did today, I sometimes sprinkle sesame seeds on top. This is purely optional, so I didn’t include it in the recipe, but it does look pretty and makes for a more authentic hamburger bun look.

It’s best to make cloud bread right before you plan on eating it. It gets soggy when stored. No doubt this is a disadvantage of this recipe, as it requires some work and it would be lovely to make a big batch and store it for a few days. But so far, I haven’t found a way to successfully store leftover cloud bread.

Servings: 10 cloud breads
Calories: 63 kcal
Ingredients
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and lightly spray them with nonstick spray.
  2. Separate the eggs into two bowls, whites in a medium bowl and yolks in a large bowl.
  3. Using an electric whisk, whip the egg whites and the cream of tartar until stiff.
  4. Whisk together the egg yolks, Greek yogurt and salt, until smooth.
  5. Using a spatula, carefully fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, working in batches. Work by placing a mound of egg whites on top of the yolk mixture, then gently fold the yolk mixture from under and over the egg whites. Fold again and again until the mixture is incorporated.
  6. Using a 1/4-cup ice cream scoop or measuring cup, spoon 5-6 large mounds of the mixture onto each of the prepared baking sheets. Gently press with a spatula to slightly flatten.
  7. Bake until golden brown and set, about 30 minutes.
  8. Cool a couple of minutes on the cookie sheet, then gently transfer the cloud bread to a wire rack to cool completely. You can also use them while still warm.
  9. Store leftovers in a slightly open Ziploc bag in the fridge for 3-4 days.
