Ingredients

Scale

Cloud Bread

  • 3 egg whites
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese

Chicken Filling

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Onion powder, to taste
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Optional: dried herbs (thyme or oregano)
  • Optional: nutritional yeast for dairy-free option
  • Optional: vegan cream cheese substitute for dairy-free option

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the cloud bread rounds.
  2. Beat egg whites: In a mixing bowl, whisk the 3 egg whites until stiff peaks form, creating a light and airy texture essential for cloud bread.
  3. Mix yolk and cream cheese: In another bowl, combine 3 egg yolks with 1/2 cup of cream cheese until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  4. Fold egg whites into yolk mixture: Gently incorporate the beaten egg whites into the yolk and cream cheese mixture, maintaining as much airiness as possible for fluffy bread.
  5. Shape cloud rounds: Spread the combined mixture evenly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming circular rounds that will serve as the bread base for the bombs.
  6. Bake cloud bread: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the rounds are golden brown and fluffy.
  7. Prepare chicken: While the cloud bread bakes, season the bite-sized chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper according to taste, and add optional dried herbs if desired.
  8. Cook chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until no longer pink and nicely golden, about 5-7 minutes.
  9. Add Parmesan: Stir in 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese into the cooked chicken, allowing it to melt and blend into the mixture.
  10. Assemble bombs: Once cloud bread rounds and chicken are ready, spoon the chicken mixture onto each cloud round and fold the edges to form a pouch-like shape.
  11. Bake assembled bombs: Return the assembled chicken bombs to the oven for an additional 10 minutes to meld flavors and slightly crisp the exterior.
  12. Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Optionally, sprinkle extra Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs on top before serving for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream cheese with a vegan alternative and Parmesan with nutritional yeast for a dairy-free version.
  • Be gentle when folding egg whites into the yolk mixture to retain the airiness crucial for fluffy cloud bread.
  • Experiment with herbs like thyme or oregano to personalize the flavor profile.
  • Ensure chicken pieces are cooked thoroughly to avoid any raw centers.
  • These can be served warm as snacks or paired with a salad for a light meal.
