Recipe: Air-Fried Cloud Bread
Ingredients:
-
3 large eggs, separated
-
3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
-
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
-
Optional: Sweetener or seasoning of your choice (such as a pinch of salt for savory bread)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
-
Begin by preheating your air fryer to 300°F (150°C), ensuring it reaches an optimal temperature for the cloud bread to achieve its desired texture.
2. Prepare Ingredients:
-
Delicately separate the egg yolks from the whites, placing them into two distinct bowls.
3. Mix Yolks with Cream Cheese:
-
Combine the softened cream cheese with the egg yolks in a bowl, stirring until a smooth and creamy consistency is achieved. For those with a sweet tooth, this is the opportune moment to add a sweetener to the mix.
4. Whip Egg Whites with Cream of Tartar:
-
In another bowl, introduce the cream of tartar to the egg whites. Utilize an electric mixer to whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, signifying their readiness for the next step.
5. Combine Mixtures:
-
With finesse, fold the egg yolk and cream cheese concoction into the beaten egg whites. The objective here is to maintain the light and airy texture, so gentle folding is key.
6. Form Cloud Bread Rounds:
-
On the air fryer tray, spoon the mixture into rounds, forming the distinctive cloud shape. Allow some space between each round to facilitate even cooking.
7. Air Fry:
-
Place the tray in the preheated air fryer, and let the magic unfold. Cook at 300°F (150°C) for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the cloud bread attains a captivating golden-brown hue and sets to perfection.
8. Cool and Enjoy:
-
Allow the freshly air-fried cloud bread to cool slightly before removing it from the air fryer. Once cooled, these delightful clouds are ready to be used as a bread substitute for sandwiches or adorned with your favorite toppings.
