Question 1

Why isn't my cloud bread fluffy?

Accepted Answer

If your cloud bread isn't fluffy, it could be due to two main reasons. 1) You didn't whip the egg whites enough. They should be beaten until stiff peaks form to incorporate enough air. 2) You didn't combine your yolk mixture gently into the egg whites. The trick is to fold it gently to avoid deflating the egg whites.

Question 2

My cloud bread tastes really eggy, why is that?

Accepted Answer

Cloud bread is predominantly made of egg, so a slight eggy taste is expected. To disguise this, you can add flavorings like vanilla extract for a sweet bread or garlic and herbs for a savory one.

Question 3

Can I replace cream of tartar in cloud bread patties?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can! Cream of tartar is used to stabilize egg whites, but you can substitute it with either lemon juice or white vinegar. The ratio is typically 1:2, so for one teaspoon of cream of tartar, use two teaspoons of lemon juice or vinegar.

Question 4

Can I use something other than cream cheese in cloud bread?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Some people use Greek yogurt or cottage cheese as a substitute for cream cheese. However, the texture of your cloud bread may slightly vary depending on the substitute used.

Question 5

Can I toast my cloud bread?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can toast your cloud bread. But be careful, it toasts faster than regular bread so keep a close eye on it.

Question 6

How do I avoid my cloud bread from deflating after coming out of the oven?

Accepted Answer

It's normal for the cloud bread to deflate slightly after it cools. To prevent it from completely collapsing, try letting it cool inside the oven with the door slightly ajar. This allows the bread to cool down gradually, preventing a shocking temperature drop.

Question 7

Why does my cloud bread split on the top while baking?

Accepted Answer

If your cloud bread splits on the top, it might be because your oven was too hot. Try reducing the temperature by 10-20 degrees and see if that makes a difference.

Question 8

What can I use instead of sweeteners in cloud bread?

Accepted Answer

If you don't want to use sweeteners, you can opt for alternatives like honey, maple syrup, or pureed bananas for a natural sweet taste. Adjust measurements depending on the sweetness desired.

Question 9

Can I make cloud bread without a mixer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can make cloud bread without a mixer. However, manually whisking the egg whites can be quite labor-intensive and it might be difficult to get stiff peaks.

Question 10

Do I need to use parchment paper when baking cloud bread?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it is recommended to use parchment paper as cloud bread can stick to the baking sheet. If you don't have parchment paper, you could use a silicone baking mat or grease the baking sheet very well.

Question 11

Analysis of Cloud Bread

Accepted Answer

Cloud Bread often invites many questions due to its unique, light and fluffy nature. It's common for people to wonder how they can achieve the perfect texture, or how they can eliminate the eggy taste. Overmixing, under-mixing, forgetting to whisk the egg whites separately and not incorporating the ingredients correctly, are where some of the mistakes lie. A great tip to achieve that fluffy texture is to beat your egg whites until stiff peaks form. As for the eggy taste, it can be masked by adding seasonings, sweeteners or flavor extracts. One of the lesser known tricks is that you can substitute cream of tartar with white vinegar or lemon juice if you don't have any on hand.
