Cloud bread is a great substitute for bread on the ketogenic diet. The term "cloud" comes from the fact that its quite light and fluffy tasting, which comes from the egg whites being mixed and folded into the rest of the recipe.
Crack the eggs and seperate the whites from the yolks. Put all the whites into a bowl and whisk with an electric mixer for 1 - 2 mins.
Add the Cream Of Tartar and whisk again for another 1 min. The mixture should start making soft peaks
In another bowl, add the yolks, salt, cream cheese and garlic powder (optional), mixing on high until well combined. Gently fold this mixture into the egg whites.
Spoon out the final mixture onto a tray lined with baking paper. They do fluff up a bit in the oven so leave enough space to breathe!
Put in the oven at 180 c ( 375F ) for 15-20 mins until slightly golden brown on top. Serve and enjoy!

The steps are very simple, but you have to be quick in order to maintain the fluffy texture that makes these cloud bread buns perfectly light and delicious.
Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar in a glass bowl that is perfectly dry, with room temperature eggs.
Beat the egg yolks, cream cheese and (optionally) garlic powder.
Fold the mixture together slowly to maintain the fluffy structure of the eggs.
Use a large spoon to make round dollops onto your baking tray.
