  • Wipe off the beaters thoroughly without even a spec of egg yolk or moisture. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.

  • Very gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, until completely combined, but still fluffy (make sure to fold, do not stir or mix or the eggs will deflate.)

  • Cloud bread is pretty tasteless. Here are a few of my favorite ways to give it more flavor:
    Pizza Cloud Bread - stir 1 & 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, 2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan, and 2 teaspoons tomato paste into the egg yolk mixture.
    Everything Cloud Bread - stir 1 tablespoon Everything bagel seasoning into the egg yolk mixture
    Ranch Cloud Bread - stir 1 & 1/2 teaspoons ranch seasoning mix into the egg yolk mixture.
