Garlic Parmesan Cloud Bread Toast (Print Version)

Light and fluffy cloud bread infused with garlic, Parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs. Gluten-free, low-carb, and ready in just 40 minutes.

# What You'll Need:

→ Egg Mixture

01 - 3 large eggs, separated
02 - 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

→ Cheese & Flavorings

03 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
04 - 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
05 - 1 garlic clove, minced
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
07 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
08 - 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
09 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
10 - 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
03 - In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks, cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic, herbs, oregano, salt, and pepper until smooth.
04 - Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture in three additions, taking care not to deflate the batter.
05 - Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming six even rounds, about 1/2 inch thick.
06 - Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
07 - Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for best texture.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • They're genuinely pillowy and cloud-like, nothing gummy or rubbery if you don't deflate them.
  • Packed with garlic and herbs, they taste more like homemade focaccia than health food.
  • Ready in under 45 minutes total, perfect for unexpected cravings or meal prep emergencies.
02 -
  • Don't deflate those egg whites during folding—I learned this the hard way, and the result was more pancake than cloud bread.
  • The oven temperature matters; too hot and they brown before setting inside, too cool and they never achieve that light, airy texture.
03 -
  • Use a rubber spatula for folding, not a whisk or spoon—it's gentler on the egg whites and gives you more control.
  • If you're making these for company, prepare everything up to the folding step ahead of time, then fold and bake just before serving so they're at their absolute best.
