Instructions

Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Blend Wet Ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine the cottage cheese, egg yolks, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and homogenous, creating the base of the cloud bread batter.
Fold in Blueberries: Pour the blended mixture into a bowl and gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries, distributing them evenly without breaking them apart.
Beat Egg Whites: In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar and a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. This aerates the whites, which will give the bread its signature fluffy texture.
Combine Mixtures: Carefully fold the stiff egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture in batches, preserving as much air as possible to maintain volume and lightness.
Shape and Bake: Scoop the batter into 6 to 8 mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow for expansion. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the cloud breads cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving to set their structure and enhance flavor.

Notes

For a more dessert-like variation, dust the cloud breads with powdered sugar or serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Using freeze-dried blueberries helps avoid extra moisture, keeping the cloud bread light and fluffy.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat gently in the oven or toaster to maintain texture.
