How to make this Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread

Ingredients

The precise ingredient measurements can be found in the recipe card below.

Eggs: The backbone of cloud bread. Whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks gives the bread its signature airy texture. Room-temperature eggs work best—they whip up faster and hold their shape better.

Cream of Tartar: Just a pinch helps stabilize the egg whites, making them fluffier and more stable. If you don’t have any on hand, a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar will do the trick.

Cottage Cheese: Adds richness and a subtle tang while keeping the bread soft and moist. Blending it smooth before mixing ensures a lump-free batter. Prefer a different texture? Ricotta works too, but the bread will be slightly denser.

Sweetener: A little erythritol or honey enhances the natural sweetness of the blueberries without overpowering the delicate flavor of the bread. Feel free to skip it if you prefer a more neutral taste.

Vanilla Extract: Just a small amount rounds out the flavors and gives the bread a subtle warmth. If you’re feeling creative, almond extract or a touch of lemon zest makes a great alternative.

Blueberries: The star of this recipe. Fresh blueberries hold their shape better during baking, while frozen ones might bleed into the batter—still delicious, just a little messier. If using frozen, don’t thaw them first.

Step-By-Step Instructions

Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread
This light and airy cottage cheese blueberry cloud bread is a perfect low-carb treat with a naturally sweet, fruity touch.

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Set your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This ensures your cloud bread won’t stick and makes cleanup easy.

While the oven warms up, separate the eggs. Crack each egg carefully, letting the whites fall into a clean, dry mixing bowl. The yolks go into a separate bowl—you’ll need them in a moment.

Step 2: Whip the Egg Whites

Add ¼ teaspoon of cream of tartar to the egg whites. Grab a hand mixer and start whipping. You’re looking for stiff peaks, which means when you lift the beaters, the peaks should stand up straight. This is what gives cloud bread its airy, fluffy texture.

Step 3: Mix the Yolks & Cottage Cheese

Over in the other bowl, blend the egg yolks, cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and sweetener until smooth. If you want an ultra-smooth batter, blend the cottage cheese first to remove any lumps.

Step 4: Fold it All Together

Now for the tricky part: combining the two mixtures. Take a scoop of the whipped egg whites and gently fold it into the yolk mixture. Once it’s incorporated, add the rest in batches, folding carefully to keep the airiness intact. You want a light, cloud-like batter, not a deflated one.

Step 5: Add the Blueberries & Shape

Gently stir in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix. Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in small rounds, about ½ inch thick. Space them apart so they have room to rise.

Step 6: Bake & Cool

Slide the tray into the oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown. Once done, let the cloud bread cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. They’ll firm up slightly as they cool, making them easier to handle.

Now, all that’s left to do is dig in—plain, topped with cream cheese, or however you like it.

Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread Recipe Tips

Whip the egg whites like you mean it. Stiff peaks are non-negotiable. If your egg whites are soft or foamy, your bread won’t rise properly. Use a clean, dry bowl (no grease or yolk traces) and give it time—this step is what gives cloud bread its signature fluff.

Fold, don’t stir. When combining the yolk mixture with the whipped egg whites, use a gentle folding motion. Stirring too aggressively will knock out all the air, leaving you with a sad, deflated result. Light, careful movements are the way to go.

Use fresh blueberries. Frozen berries release extra moisture as they bake, which can make the bread a little too soft. If you’re working with frozen, toss them in a tiny bit of almond flour before adding them to the batter.

Keep an eye on the bake time. Cloud bread is delicate—it should be golden on top but still soft inside. If it starts to brown too quickly, lower the oven temp slightly and let it finish baking at a gentler heat.

Let it cool before handling. Right out of the oven, the bread will be super soft. Give it a few minutes to set up before moving it off the baking sheet. It’ll firm up slightly, making it easier to pick up and enjoy.

Perfect Pairings & When to Serve

Breakfast with a twist. Spread a little cream cheese or Greek yogurt on top, add a few extra blueberries, and drizzle with sugar-free syrup for a light yet satisfying morning meal. Pair it with a cup of low-carb iced coffee for the perfect start to your day.

A mid-day snack that won’t weigh you down. Need a quick bite between meals? Grab a piece of this fluffy cloud bread and enjoy it plain or with a smear of almond butter. It’s light, refreshing, and just the right balance of sweet and satisfying.

A healthy dessert alternative. Want something sweet without the sugar crash? Serve this cloud bread with a side of whipped cream and extra fresh berries. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate sauce for an indulgent touch.

Great for meal prep. Make a batch ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to three days. Whether you’re craving a quick snack, a simple breakfast, or a low-carb treat, this cloud bread is ready whenever you are.

Kitchen Tools You’ll Need

FAQ About Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread

Can I make this cloud bread ahead of time?
Yes! Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If it starts to soften, pop it in a toaster oven or warm it in the oven for a few minutes to bring back some texture.

Can I freeze cloud bread?
Absolutely. Freeze the baked pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet first, then transfer them to a ziplock bag. When you’re ready to eat, let them thaw at room temperature or reheat gently in the oven.

Why did my cloud bread turn out flat?
Flat cloud bread is usually the result of under-whipped egg whites or overmixing when folding them into the yolk mixture. Make sure you whip the whites to stiff peaks and fold them in carefully to keep as much air in the batter as possible.

Can I use a different type of cheese instead of cottage cheese?
Yes! Ricotta cheese works well but will make the texture slightly denser. You can also try Greek yogurt for a lighter version. Just blend it smooth before adding it to the mix.

Can I make this without sweetener?
Of course! The blueberries provide natural sweetness, so if you prefer a more neutral flavor, just leave the sweetener out. You can also turn this into a savory version by skipping the blueberries and adding herbs, cheese, or garlic powder.

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Whip the Egg Whites

In a clean, dry mixing bowl, add the egg whites and cream of tartar. Using a hand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form—this should take about 2-3 minutes. The mixture should be glossy and hold its shape when the beaters are lifted.

Step 3: Mix the Yolks & Cottage Cheese

Step 4: Fold the Egg Whites

Gently fold a third of the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining whites, being careful not to deflate the batter. The goal is to keep it airy.

Step 5: Add Blueberries & Shape

Sprinkle in the blueberries and fold them in lightly. Using a spoon, drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in small rounds about ½ inch thick.

Step 6: Bake & Cool

 

Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cloud bread is golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. Let them cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
