Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese, full fat or low fat
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix the egg yolks and cottage cheese until completely smooth. You can use an immersion blender for the smoothest texture.
- In a separate, clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. This step adds the necessary airiness.
- Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the yolk and cottage cheese mixture to lighten it.
- Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined. Do not overmix; you want to keep the volume.
- Spoon four equal mounds of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently shape them into rounds.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For the lightest texture, ensure your egg white bowl is completely free of grease or yolk.
- Using an immersion blender ensures the cottage cheese fully incorporates, preventing lumps in the final product.
- This bread is best eaten the day it is made for optimal fluffiness.
- This recipe is naturally low in carbohydrates and fits a Keto diet.
