Cloud bread. Gluten free. FODMAP friendly. Wonderful.
20 Minutes • Gluten-free • Low FODMAP • Serves 4 - 6 • This gluten-free delight is a bit like a light scone or a delicate biscuit and it’s delicious! It can be served with sweet or savory dishes, as a side bread, or serve with jam or even with real maple syrup like a pancake.
INGREDIENTS:
2 eggs separated
1 tablespoon cream cheese at room temperature
2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
2/3 cup gluten-free flour
1 tsp sugar
Pinch each of salt and pepper
DIRECTIONS:
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment and preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F).
Separate eggs and using a stand mixer or balloon whisk, whisk egg whites until stiff but not dry.
In a separate bowl, mix egg yolks, cream cheese, butter or oil, and sugar together, then slowly add the gluten-free flour. The mixture will be fairly thick. Fold the whipped egg whites into the egg yolk mixture just until combined. Don't over mix. Season with just a pinch of salt and pepper.
Drop batter by tablespoonful on the parchment leaving space to rise while baking.
Bake for 9 - 10 minutes until lightly browned.
Serve hot as a bread to accompany a savory dish, or as a breakfast with jam, maple syrup, and butter.
