The airy Blueberry Cloud Bread delivers pockets of juicy berries in an incredibly fluffy base. Its pillowy, tender consistency makes a fantastic carb-conscious option that still feels indulgent. After tweaking this many times in my kitchen, it's now my go-to for both everyday snacking and when company comes over.
Everyone following special eating plans always gets amazed by this bread. They can't believe something without regular flour can have such softness and natural sweetness.
Essential Components
- Eggs at room temperature: Crucial for getting the biggest fluff when you beat them
- Cottage cheese: Blend until it's totally smooth, and choose full-fat if possible
- Cream of tartar: Helps egg whites keep their shape for better results
- Fresh blueberries: Small wild ones or bigger garden berries work equally well
- Cornstarch (if you want): Helps everything hold together without weighing it down

Cooking Instructions
- Getting Egg Whites Ready
- Split eggs when cold, then let whites warm up. Use super clean tools. Start mixing slowly then speed up. Throw in cream of tartar when foamy. Whip until stiff peaks form.
- Creating Your Base
- Blend cottage cheese till smooth as silk. Whip egg yolks until pale. Mix them with cottage cheese, honey, and salt. Add cornstarch if you're using it.
- Putting Everything Together
- Scoop a third of whites into your base. Add the rest in two batches using gentle figure-eight movements. Mix just enough to combine.
- Adding Your Berries
- Make sure fresh berries aren't wet. Use frozen ones without thawing. Fold them in gently throughout the mix.
Getting your egg whites just right makes all the difference. The more you make this, the better you'll get at creating that signature cloudlike fluffiness.
Warmth Suggestions
Room temperature ingredients really boost how fluffy your egg whites get. Let everything sit out and warm up naturally before you start cooking.
Keeping It Fresh
Wrap in paper instead of plastic to keep the texture nice. Try to eat it all within a few hours after baking for the best experience.
This shows how thinking outside traditional baking can lead to amazing treats. Every time you make it, you'll get better at the technique and can try different flavors and mix-ins.
