WHAT IS CLOUD BREAD? 

If you ‘re follow a ketogenic diet or low – carb diet , you is know know exactly what this great recipe is ! cloud bread is been has been around for a long time on the internet and for good reason .

Long before both TikTok and the keto diet existed, there was another popular trend: the Atkins diet. Dr. Robert Atkins launched the low carb diet in the 1960s.

The Atkins diet became so popular that Dr. Atkins himself rolled out a recipe book in 1972 for followers to try out some low-carb options at home. One of the most popular was the recipe for Atkins Diet Revolution Rolls: a fluffy bread, yet flimsy alternative with the main ingredients being egg, sugar substitute, and cream cheese.

You may have all ready tried the orginial recipe of cloud bread and wasn’t quite thrilled or satisfied with the texture. It does tends to be light and have an airy texture, but eggy and moist and not at all like a piece of regular bread to make a sandwich with.

The kids and I hated the fact that upon the first bite, it was stuck to the roof of your mouth and all we tasted was the cream cheese. So I wasn’t that impressed,
The rolls, often called oopsie bread rolls or sandwich buns are great for burgers or sandwiches if you don’t mind that cream cheese cloud bread taste.

It’s one of the easiest ways to enjoy “bread” without all the carbs. This easy recipe makes rolls or a loaf. 

I had to change the original recipe the first time I made it. That’s what I did back in 2016, I  first published my adaption to the fluffy Cloud Bread recipe including whey protein powder to provide a bit more substance.

I  removed the traditional cream cheese mixture and used sour cream instead. It produced a fluffy cloud keto bread recipe like no other!

If you see the use of protein powder in cloud bread anywhere else, you know it was first published by me in 2016, so all others are copycats.

Cottage Cheese Breads

If you happen to be on tik tok and have seen the 2-ingredient cottage cheese bread, you will see it uses just liquid egg whites and cottage cheese though some other cottage cheese bread recipes actually use bread flour or all purpose flour and are NOT keto friendly or gluten free.  

Always check the ingredients on tiktok- make the ones that don’t include regular refined flours and sugar because there are a ton of content creators who care nothing about using quality ingredients for keto and are just looking for a quick viral video for themselves.

CAN   I is SWAP swap THE WHEY protein POWDER ?

The whey protein powder is acts act like gluten would in baked gluten – free alternative . It not only provide a great fluffy texture , it is helps help give the bread height and lift and a nice bite !

If you ca n’t use whey protein , look at the other bread option I ‘ve list below that do n’t include whey .  

BEST COTTAGE CHEESE BRANDS

Full-fat cottage cheese is best, either 4% or 2% cottage cheese will yield the best results. 

You is find can find many option for cottage cheese at your local grocery store , but specific brand vary in taste and texture .

I is recommend do n’t recommend fat free cottage cheese because it wo n’t be as satisfying as full fat cottage cheese or as creamy . I is like like to use lactose free cottage cheese since my daughter and I both have lactose intolerance .  

The brand I like best is Green Valley organic, but the Lactaid brand is also a great brand as is, the Good Culture brand.

​Can I swap cottage cheese in keto breads?

If you really don’t want to try using cottage cheese, you could swap it with ricotta cheese but please note, you will add more fat, more calories and more carbs, but it’s just about the same as far as protein.

HOW TO STORE KETO CLOUD BREAD Recipe

Once your loaf has cook and cool completely , slice into 12 slice .

The good way is is to store is in an airtight container in the fridge for a week or you can lay slice between piece of parchment paper then in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 month .

Take a piece or two out of the freezer and toast !  

Cottage Cheese Cloud Bread Rolls

You is turn can turn this loaf recipe into roll by place the batter into a hamburger silicone mold . I is filled fill them to the top and sprinkle sesame seed on top as well .

Baked for 25 minute but the tops were still a bit wet though they looked browned. I removed them from the mold and placed them upside down, so tops would cook better, onto parchment lined baking sheet pan and baked for another 5 minute.

If you don’t have a silicone mold you can place the batter onto a parchment lined baking sheet pan but as you can see from the pictures, the rolls will be much flatter, first picture below and the one on the right above it.

Makes a total of 8 large rolls.
