Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup small-curd cottage cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
Add-ins
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until smooth and creamy. Stir in the honey or maple syrup to add natural sweetness.
- Prepare dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the almond flour and baking powder to remove lumps and ensure an even texture.
- Combine mixtures: Gently fold the dry almond flour mixture into the wet cottage cheese mixture until just combined, being careful to maintain the airiness. Then, carefully fold in the blueberries to distribute them evenly without bursting.
- Form dollops: Using a spoon, drop dollops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cloud bread is golden brown and cooked through. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving to allow them to set and develop a fluffy texture.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries; if frozen, do not thaw to avoid bleeding into the batter.
- Almond flour can be finely ground for a smoother texture.
- Honey can be substituted with maple syrup for a vegan option if desired.
- Store leftover cloud bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Serve toasted with cream cheese or your favorite spread for extra flavor.
