Garlic Parmesan Cloud Bread Toast (Printable View)

Airy cloud bread elevated with garlic, Parmesan, and fresh herbs. Gluten-free and low-carb savory toast ready in 40 minutes.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Egg Mixture

01 - 3 large eggs, separated
02 - ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

→ Cheese & Flavorings

03 - ¼ 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 - ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
09 - ¼ teaspoon salt
10 - ⅛ 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 ½ inch thick.
06 - Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
07 - Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for best texture.

# Best Practices:

01 -
  • These savory clouds are incredibly versatile – Ive used them as dippers for soup, mini pizza bases, and even sandwich alternatives without the carb crash afterward.
  • The process of folding those egg whites is oddly therapeutic, making this not just a recipe but a moment of kitchen meditation when life gets chaotic.
02 -
  • If your egg whites deflate while folding, slow down and use fewer strokes – I ruined three batches before learning that gentleness matters more than thorough mixing.
  • These breads will slightly deflate after baking – its completely normal and doesnt mean youve failed, just part of their unique texture evolution.
03 -
  • The eggs separate most cleanly when cold, but whites whip to greater volume at room temperature – separate them first thing, then let the whites rest while you prep other ingredients.
  • If you want a more bread-like experience, let them cool completely then toast them lightly before serving – this creates a more substantial texture that holds up to heartier toppings.
