Gluten Free Cloud Bread
I’ve been gluten free for about 6 or 7 years. I have to admit that gluten free food has come a long way since then. It tastes so much better now and we’ve had so many more options. One food that still isn’t *quite* the same is bread. I have two brands I love, but I hate to spend $6 plus per loaf. So, I made my own with simple ingredients and there’s no carbs! It tastes really good too!
I started with two eggs and I separated them. 2 egg yolks in one bowl and 2 egg whites in another. In the bowl with the yolks I added 2 oz of softened cream cheese and blended it well. In the bowl with the 2 egg whites I added 1/8 tsp of cream of tartar and I beat the mixture until stiff peaks appear. It seems like it takes forever, but trust me … see it through. It will turn to white, then start to thicken, and it will finally turn satiny.
After you get your peaks fold in the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites with a rubber spatula.
I then spooned the mixture onto parchment paper in cooked in a 300 degree oven for 30 minutes. My two eggs made 8 bun halves for a total of 4 sets.
Once they were done cooking I cooled them on a wire rack. They are light, airy, and delicious!
They make fabulous sandwiches!

This looks so easy and good. I’ve tried some gluten free products and bread is a hard one to find that tastes decent. This is definitely on my list to try
Nena Sinclair says
These look so delicious! I’m passing this onto my sister, she’s gluten intolerant.
Sandra Watts says
This bread looks so light and airy. I wonder if it is something I can eat. I always have trouble with bread even though it is what I crave the most.

Does it taste like a pop-over? I just shared this with a friend.
Donna says
I’ve never had a pop over so I’m not sure.

and no flour at all? OMG I love it!!!
Beth Ann Chiles says
That seems like such a simple recipe so why would I not try it? Putting it in my “to make” file even though I don’t have to be gluten free it would be fun to try sometime. Thanks for sharing!

I just like that it’s so easy! Myles doesn’t have to be gluten free either and it gets his stamp of approval. P.S. no carbs!
