A light, airy cloud bread made without cream cheese, using whipped egg whites stabilized with cream of tartar. Perfect for a quick, gluten-free snack or breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the eggs, transferring the whites into a clean, dry mixing bowl, ensuring no yolk is included.
  3. Add the cream of tartar and a pinch of salt to the egg whites.
  4. Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Gradually add the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat until stiff, shiny peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Gently fold in the vanilla extract with a spatula, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  7. Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to dollop the meringue mixture onto the parchment paper, shaping rounds about 3 inches wide and spacing them 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until lightly golden on the bottom but still white and soft on top.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

If you don’t have cream of tartar, substitute with 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice or white vinegar for every 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar. Use chilled egg whites and a cold bowl to speed up whipping if using a hand mixer. Avoid any grease on bowl or beaters to ensure proper whipping. Bake at a low temperature to keep bread soft and fluffy. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze between parchment sheets.
