Serve as a side with some savory beef stew. The possibilities are endless!
Can You Freeze Cloud Bread?

Keto Cloud Bread Tips
- Use large eggs in this recipe for cloud bread in order to acheive the right texture.
- Let the cream cheese come to room temperature for easier blending.
- Double-check the expiration date on the baking powder to make sure it is still fresh to use. When in doubt, throw it out and buy fresh.
- Be sure to beat the eggs to very stiff peaks to get the perfect consistency for cloud bread. The whites should adhere to the beaters when removed from the bowl.
- If cloud bread seems unbaked, bake it a little more. The inside should be dry like meringue. Cloud bread will fall apart if it isn’t fully baked.
- Be sure cloud bread slices are completely cooled before storing or using.
