Can I make this ahead?

Yes. Fluffy Cottage Cheese Blueberry Cloud Bread works well as an ahead-of-time breakfast or snack. Store it in an airtight container and enjoy it within a few days.

Can I use low-fat cottage cheese?

Yes, though full-fat cottage cheese gives a richer result. Low-fat will still work if you blend it very smoothly.

Why is my cloud bread not fluffy?

The most common causes are under-whipped egg whites, overmixing, or a bowl that was not fully clean and dry. Those air bubbles matter.

Can I use frozen blueberries?

Yes, but let them thaw slightly first so they do not bleed too much color or add too much moisture.

Can I make it dairy-free?

A thick non-dairy yogurt can work as a substitute if blended smooth enough, though the texture may vary a little.

Ingredients

Scale

3 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup full-fat cottage cheese, drained well and blended until smooth

Instructions

Heat the oven and prepare the pan.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease an 8-inch round or square baking dish so the bread releases easily after baking.
Whip the egg whites.
Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in a clean, dry bowl. Beat them until stiff peaks form. The mixture should look glossy and hold its shape when the whisk lifts.
Mix the yolk mixture.
In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, blended cottage cheese, cornstarch, sweetener if using, vanilla, and lemon zest. Stir until the mixture looks smooth and evenly blended.
Combine the mixtures gently.
Add the whipped egg whites to the yolk mixture in batches. Fold carefully with a spatula until the batter is fully incorporated. Work slowly so you do not knock out the air.
Add the blueberries.
Gently fold the blueberries into the batter. Try to distribute them evenly without crushing them.
Transfer to the baking dish.
Pour the batter into the prepared dish and smooth the top lightly with a spatula.
Bake.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top turns golden and the bread feels springy when touched.
Cool before slicing.
Remove the dish from the oven and let the bread cool completely before cutting. The texture will continue to set as it cools, so it may feel soft at first.

Notes

Cottage cheese: Blend it very smoothly so the final bread does not have lumps.
Eggs: Room-temperature eggs whip more easily and help create better volume.
Blueberries: They may release a little moisture while baking. If you prefer a softer, slightly more custardy center, slightly underbake it.
Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 to 3 days.
Dairy-free swap: A thick, smooth non-dairy yogurt can work in place of cottage cheese for a dairy-free version.
