Flourless Cloud Bread Sandwich

Ingredients

• 3 large eggs (Separate the egg whites from the yolks; use 2 egg whites for whipping and 1 whole egg for the mixture.)
• 1 tbsp cream cheese (It can also be substituted with Greek yogurt, according to the video.)
• 2 tbsp almond flour (It can be substituted with flour made from another nut.)
• salt (To taste; use a pinch for whipping the egg whites and adjust the mixture if necessary.)
• 2 rebanadas ham (Optional filling; estimated amount for the version shown.)
• 2 rebanadas cheese (Optional filling; use your preferred cheese. Estimated amount for the version shown.)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. You can also cook the bread in a nonstick skillet over low heat.

2. 2

   Separate two egg whites and place them in a clean bowl. Add a pinch of salt and beat until stiff peaks form: the whites should form firm peaks and retain their volume when the whisk is lifted.

3. 3

   In another bowl, place the whole egg and add the cream cheese. Mix until as smooth as possible, with no large lumps.

4. 4

   Fold the whipped egg whites into the egg and cream cheese mixture in two or three additions. Use gentle folding motions to avoid losing the air.

5. 5

   Add the almond flour and fold again just until incorporated. Avoid overmixing to preserve the fluffy texture.

6. 6

   Pour the mixture onto the baking sheet and spread it into a round or oval shape approximately 1 cm thick. If using a skillet, place the mixture in a nonstick skillet over low heat and cover.

7. 7

   Bake for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, until the bread is puffed, lightly golden, and firm to the touch. In a skillet, cook covered over low heat until the base is set and the surface no longer looks liquid; carefully flip it if necessary.

8. 8

   Remove the bread and let it rest for 1 or 2 minutes to stabilize. Open it or fold it according to the shape you chose.

9. 9

   Fill with the ingredients of your choice. For the version shown, place the ham and cheese in the center and serve as a sandwich.
