What is cloud bread?

Made with only 3 ingredients, cloud bread is light, fluffy, and my favorite way to replace carbs. This is the perfect bread alternative for the Weight Watchers program. The entire batch has only 5-6 points, depending on your plan.

I’ve found that the best bread for Weight Watchers is one that is low on points and has ingredients I can pronounce. If you’re on a keto diet this is also a good bread alternative–it has 5g of carbs and 20g of protein per batch. Perfectly keto friendly!

Ingredients

  • Eggs
  • Light Cream Cheese 
  • Baking Powder

Recipe Tips

  • Room temperature ingredients incorporate better. I recommend leaving your eggs and cream cheese on the counter for at least an hour before cooking. Do not microwave the ingredients to bring to room temperature, as it does not render the same results. 
  • I prefer using a silpat baking mat, but lining your cookie sheet with parchment paper works as well.
  • You can use cream of tartar in place of baking powder. 
  • You can use low fat plain Greek yogurt in place of cream cheese, but your batter might be a little runny. If you’d like to follow a recipe specifically for Cloud Bread with Greek yogurt, you can!
  • If you do not have a cookie scoop, use 2 rounded tablespoons of batter per piece of bread for small bread like you see in my pictures.
