But let me tell you, I was wrong. The texture is light and airy, almost cloud-like as the name suggests. It has a subtle sweetness and a pleasant savory undertone thanks to the cream cheese. I use it for everything – open-faced sandwiches, topping for soups, or even as a base for mini pizzas. The possibilities are endless! And the beauty of this recipe is its adaptability.

Step-by-step

    • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
    • Separate the eggs very carefully; there must be no yolk in the white.
    • In one bowl, mix together the egg yolks, 3 tablespoons of Cottage Cheese OR Cream Cheese, and one packet of Sweetener until smooth.
    • In the other bowl, add 1/4 teaspoon of Cream of Tartar to the whites and beat the whites on high speed until they are fluffy and form nice peaks.
    • Very carefully fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites until mixed but try and not break down the fluffiness of the egg whites too much.
    • Spray two cookie sheets with Pam or other fat-free cooking spray.
    • With a large spoon, scoop the mixture into 10 even rounds on the sheets (about the size of the top-half of a McDonald's hamburger bun; roughly 3/4 inch thick and 4 to 5 inches across).
    • Bake on the middle rack. Watch them closely because the cooking time varies. It's around 1/2 hour, but it could be less or more. Bake until they become nice and golden brown (like a McDonald's bun).
    • Remove from the pans and cool on a rack or cutting board.
    • While warm, they are crumbly and similar to cooked meringue. Once completely cool, seal them in a ziplock bag or Tupperware overnight. They will change their consistency to something much more like bread – a softer texture that is nice and chewy. If you prefer crispier bread, eat them warm.
    • Since the sides that were facing the pan are perfectly flat, use these to spread things on, make sandwiches, or even as a burger bun!
