The recipe combines a cloud bread pastry and a sweet cream cheese filling. It’s a treat that even those on a very strict ketogenic diet can enjoy.
Ingredients:
Cream Cheese Filling
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ teaspoon vanilla stevia drops for filling (can be adjusted to taste, see notes for alternative)
- 1 egg yolk optional
Base Egg Dough:
- 4 eggs divided
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla stevia drops for dough (can be adjusted to taste, see notes for alternative)
- 3 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup unflavored whey protein
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour optional
- ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 325F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In medium bowl, stir together 8 ounces cream cheese and vanilla stevia (and egg yolk, if using). Transfer to plastic bag or pastry bag.
-
Separate egg whites and yolks into separate mixing bowls.
-
Add stevia, 3 ounces cream cheese and whey protein to yolks. Stir in optional coconut flour, if using. Mix until smooth.
-
Whip eggs whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
-
Gently fold yolk mixture into beaten whites. This is done by cutting into the mixture several times with a rubber spatula and very gently turn the spatula each time being very careful not to flatten the beaten egg whites. (tips for folding)
-
Spoon 6 mounds of the egg batter onto each prepared baking sheets (12 mounds total). Flatten each mound slightly.
-
Pipe sweetened cream cheese onto the center of each batter circle.
-
Bake at 325°F for 30 minutes.

About ¼ cup of granular sweetener and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract can be used to replace the stevia in the filling. About 2 tablespoons of granular sweetener can be used in place of stevia for the dough along with ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract.
