Keto Cloud Loaf (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

01 - Take 6 large eggs at room temp, split the yolks and whites apart
02 - Either 1/2 tsp white vinegar or cream of tartar
03 - 113g cottage cheese
04 - 1/2 tsp baking powder
05 - 1/4 tsp salt
06 - 62g (about 3/4 cup or 2.5 scoops) whey protein powder
07 - 1 tbsp allulose if you want a bit of sweetness, it’s totally fine to leave out
08 - 1/4 tsp onion powder (use this if you want it on the savory side, but not needed)
09 - 1/4 tsp garlic powder if you're all about that savory life (optional)
10 - 20g egg white protein powder (close to 1/4 cup)
11 - Throw on sesame seeds or any bagel blend toppings if you’re into it
12 - 1 tsp vanilla stevia for French toast flavor, skip if you’re not feeling it

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Fire up your oven to 150°C first. Grab a loaf pan (23 x 13 cm), cover with parchment, and smear some grease on so nothing sticks.
02 - Mix those egg whites with vinegar using a mixer until you get some sturdy peaks. Sometimes takes 15 minutes, so hang tight. Set bowl aside when done.
03 - In another bowl, mix yolks, cottage cheese, salt, baking powder, both protein powders, and any extras you picked—whisk or blend until super smooth.
04 - Add a little bit of yolk mixture to the fluffy egg whites. Fold in gently, then keep adding slowly, being careful not to squash that fluff. Go easy—it shouldn’t lose the air.
05 - Once it’s all blended, tip the mixture into your loaf pan. Or, drop portions onto a lined tray if you’re making buns. Add whatever seeds or toppings you want now.
06 - Put your pan right in the center and bake until it’s golden and a skewer comes out dry, usually about 50 minutes.
07 - Turn off the oven, but keep the bread inside for another 10 minutes (door closed) to let it settle down.
08 - Slice and eat it however you like—warm, toasted, or cold. Store it however you usually keep fluffy, protein-packed bread good.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Want something savory? Go for garlic and onion powder. Sweet tooth? Leave those out, use vanilla stevia instead.
02 - If you’re down for mini rolls, scoop the dough into 8 blobs and bake them for 20-25 minutes at 150°C.
03 - Keeping the loaf in the oven with the heat off stops it from sinking, and keeps the inside soft.
