Cloud Bread

So much to do and so little time before I go to the U.K. to do their craft show, Hochanda (it's like QVC or HSN).  Thanks to my good friend Jeanette who shared this recipe, I was able to "whip" up a lovely warm bread, sans flour, to have my jam on this morning.

This grain-free bread is a healthy way to start the morning with.  Just three ingredients and this recipe is not only easy, but economical.  There's apparently lots of recipes on the internet for this bread; one even adding some sugar, but this was perfect.

Cloud Bread
3 eggs, at room temperature, separated
1/8 tsp. Cream of Tartar
3 T (1.5oz) cream cheese, at room temperature

Preheat oven to 300F-degrees.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Separate the eggs.  Into the egg whites, add the cream of tartar and beat with a hand held mixer until firm.  In the yolk bowl, cream the yolks with the cream cheese until all lumps are gone.

Add about 1/3 of the egg whites to the yolk mixture and stir to lighten the batter.  Now use a rubber spatula and gently fold in the remaining whites into the yolks.

Scoop out the batter onto the parchment lined baking sheet.  Use an off-set spatula to spread the batter a bit.  It will make six rounds.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.  Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes.  Use a metal spatula to slide the cloud bread onto serving plates.  I chose my homemade strawberry jam, but hubby wanted an egg/cheese and veggie sausage sandwich.

It's a good way to start your day with protein.  Enjoy!
