Why isn't my cloud bread getting fluffy?

This usually comes down to under-whipped egg whites or overmixing the batter. Make sure your egg whites are whipped to stiff peaks and folded in gently. Room-temperature eggs and a completely grease-free bowl are key.

Can I use cottage cheese in cloud bread?

Yes, and it’s what makes fluffy cottage cheese cloud bread so unique. Cottage cheese adds moisture, protein, and richness without compromising structure. Just make sure it’s smooth; blend it if necessary to avoid clumps.

Does Aldi's sell cloud bread?

Yes, Aldi sometimes carries premade cloud bread, often near the low-carb or refrigerated section. But it’s not always available and doesn’t offer the same fluffy, fresh texture as homemade versions.

Is cloud bread healthy?

It can be. Fluffy cottage cheese cloud bread is low-carb, high in protein, and gluten-free. Cottage cheese brings calcium and casein protein, making it a great option for low-guilt snacking or light meals. Just avoid overloading it with sugar if you're keeping it health-focused.
