1 piece (medium) of Cloud bread (25 g) has 28 calories. That works out to 110 calories per 100 g. It contains 0.8 g of carbs, 1.9 g of protein, 1.8 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 2 µg of Biotin covers 7% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 35 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Cloud bread is a soft, baked bread alternative usually made with whipped eggs and a mild, soft cheese, rather than flour and yeast. It is a modern recipe associated with low-carbohydrate cooking, not a traditional loaf with a single regional origin. Whipping the mixture gives the small rounds their airy, sponge-like interior and lightly golden surface.
It works in place of sliced bread for sandwiches, or as a simple breakfast accompaniment; in Turkey, it can also be served at breakfast or alongside tea. Cloud bread is low in carbohydrates and provides some protein, though it contains very little fibre. Pair it with vegetables and a savoury filling for a more balanced, satisfying meal.

An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Cloud bread is usually made with eggs and a soft cheese such as cream cheese. Whipped egg whites give it its airy structure, while the yolks and cheese add richness; some recipes also include a little salt or leavening.
To make cloud bread fluffy, whip the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks, then gently fold them into the yolk-and-cheese mixture. Mixing too vigorously knocks out the air, so use a spatula and stop as soon as the batter is combined.
Cloud bread often deflates a little as it cools because its airy structure is made from egg foam. A weakly whipped foam, rough folding, or taking the pieces out before they are fully baked can make them collapse more noticeably.
No, cloud bread does not taste or chew exactly like regular bread. It is softer and more sponge-like, with a mild egg-and-cheese flavor rather than the yeasty taste and crust of a conventional loaf.
Use fresh eggs and bake cloud bread until it is fully set to reduce a pronounced eggy taste. A little salt, herbs, or seasoning can also balance the flavor, especially when you plan to serve the pieces with savory fillings.
Yes, cloud bread can be used as a burger bun, but its airy texture is more delicate than a regular bun. Let the pieces cool fully and add juicy toppings just before serving, so the bread is less likely to become soggy or break.
Store cloud bread in a sealed container in the refrigerator once it has cooled completely. Since it contains eggs and cheese, do not leave it at room temperature for extended periods; it is best eaten within a few days.
Yes, cloud bread freezes well. Cool the pieces completely, separate them with parchment so they do not stick together, and store them in an airtight freezer container; thaw and warm them briefly before serving to refresh their texture.
Cloud bread can feel sticky if it is underbaked or packed away before it has cooled. Bake it until the surface is set, then let the pieces cool on a rack before storing them in a container.
Cloud bread works well with savory toppings such as smoked salmon, sliced cheese, avocado, or eggs, and it can also be served with jam. Add moist toppings shortly before eating, because the soft bread absorbs liquid quickly.
