Carnivore Cloud Bread

Introduction

Carnivore cloud bread is a light, fluffy, and protein-rich bread alternative that’s perfect for anyone following a low-carb, keto, or carnivore diet. Unlike traditional bread, this recipe doesn’t use flour or grains—making it a guilt-free way to enjoy “bread” without the carbs.

This bread is made mainly from eggs and dairy, giving it a soft, airy texture that almost melts in your mouth. It’s versatile too—you can use it as a sandwich bun, a pizza base, or even enjoy it plain as a quick snack.

If you’ve been missing bread while sticking to a carnivore or keto lifestyle, this recipe is a game-changer. With minimal ingredients and simple steps, you can whip up a batch in under an hour.

Cooking Time & Serving

  • Prep time: 10 minutes
  • Cook time: 25 minutes
  • Total time: 35 minutes
  • Servings: Makes 6–8 pieces

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs (separated)
  • 3 oz (85 g) cream cheese or mascarpone (softened)
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar (for stability)
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Optional for extra flavor (not strict carnivore):

  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder or onion powder
  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

How to Make Carnivore Cloud Bread

  1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the eggs carefully—place the whites in a large mixing bowl and the yolks in another bowl.
  3. Whip the egg whites: Add cream of tartar and a pinch of salt to the whites. Beat with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form (the mixture should be fluffy and stand on its own).
  4. Mix the yolks: Combine the egg yolks with softened cream cheese until smooth.
  5. Fold together: Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped whites. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
  6. Scoop onto baking sheet: Spoon 6–8 round portions onto the parchment paper, smoothing lightly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  8. Cool before serving. The bread will firm up more as it cools.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
  • Toasting before serving makes it crispier.
  • You can make it strict carnivore by skipping any seasonings or cheese variations.
  • For extra sturdiness (sandwich-style), bake slightly larger rounds.

FAQs

Q: Is carnivore cloud bread keto-friendly?

Yes! It’s extremely low-carb and fits perfectly into keto and carnivore diets.

Q: Can I use cottage cheese instead of cream cheese?

Yes, but blend it smooth before mixing with the yolks for best texture.

Q: Why did my cloud bread collapse?

This usually happens if the egg whites weren’t whipped enough, or if the mixture was over-mixed when folding.

Q: Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes—use only eggs and skip the cream cheese, though the texture will be slightly less creamy.
