# Ingredients:

01 -
1 cup 2% Fat Small Curd Cottage Cheese
02 -
4 large Eggs, separated
03 -
1 tbsp Cornstarch
04 -
1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar
05 -
1/4 tsp Fine Sea Salt
→ Sweet & Aromatic Infusion
06 -
1/4 cup Granulated Erythritol
07 -
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
08 -
1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
09 -
1/4 tsp Almond Extract
→ Bursting Blueberry Swirl & Finish
10 -
1/2 cup Fresh Blueberries
11 -
1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
12 -
1 tbsp Powdered Erythritol, for dusting
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring an overhang on the sides. This preparation is key for easily removing your Fluffy High Protein Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread.
02 -
In a food processor, combine 1 cup 2% Fat Small Curd Cottage Cheese, 4 large Egg Yolks (from separated eggs), 1 tbsp Cornstarch, 1/4 tsp Fine Sea Salt, 1/4 cup Granulated Erythritol, 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract, 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest, and 1/4 tsp Almond Extract. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
03 -
In a large, clean bowl, beat the 4 large Egg Whites with 1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar using an electric mixer on high speed. Continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. This step is crucial for achieving the airy, 'cloud' texture of your Fluffy High Protein Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread.
04 -
Gently fold about one-third of the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture until just combined. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to deflate the delicate mixture. Overmixing will reduce the 'fluffiness'.
05 -
Pour the prepared batter into your lined baking dish. Evenly sprinkle 1/2 cup Fresh Blueberries and 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon over the top. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cloud bread is golden brown and set, for your delicious Fluffy High Protein Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread.
06 -
Let the Fluffy High Protein Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once fully cooled, dust generously with 1 tbsp Powdered Erythritol before slicing and serving.
# Notes:
01 -
For an extra burst of flavor, gently mash a few blueberries with a fork before sprinkling them over the batter.
02 -
Store leftover cloud bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It's delicious chilled!
03 -
Feel free to substitute other berries like raspberries or blackberries for the blueberries, or omit them entirely for a plain vanilla version.
04 -
Serve this cloud bread as a light breakfast, a high-protein snack, or a guilt-free dessert with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
