The rolls, often called oopsie bread rolls are perfect for burgers or sandwiches. The loaf is better for toasting, French Toast, Grilled Cheese, andTEXAS TOAST!!

You may have all ready tried the orginial recipe of cloud bread and wasn't quite thrilled or satisfied with the texture. It does tends to be light and have an airy texture, but eggy and moist and not at all like a piece of regular bread to make a sandwich with.

The kids and I hated the fact that upon the first bite, it was stuck to the roof of your mouth and all we tasted was the cream cheese. So I wasn't that impressed, even with all the rave reviews.

Either way, many, many and many more bloggers have gotten on the bandwagon to make it and share it as well. But I do like the fact that it's so low in carbs and really could satisfy that need for sandwich bread!

I had to change the original recipe the first time I made it. That's what I did back in 2016, I first published my adaption to Cloud Bread including whey protein powder to provide a bit more substance.

I removed the traditional cream cheese mixture and used sour cream instead. It produced a fluffy cloud bread recipe like no other!

If you see the use of protein powder in cloud bread anywhere else, you know it was first published by me in 2016, so all others are copycats.

And this version was so much better then the orginial, but I have been revising and editing and made it even better!

FOLDin a small amount of egg whites into the yolk mixture a little at a time until it's all incorporated. I do this in about 3 batches. I use my spatula to get to the very bottom of the bowl and spoon over the yolk mixture and turn the bowl while continuing to spoon over and gently incorporate the whites.

ALLOWto cool completely. To help prevent some deflating in the center you could lay the pan on its side for 30 minutes then lay on the other side for 30 minutes.

The whey protein powder acts like gluten would in a baked good. It not only provides a great texture, it helps give the bread height and lift and a nice bite!

I would not recommend swapping the whey protein powder with anything else except egg white protein powder which Maria uses in herprotein sparing bread recipefor those who are looking to lower their fat intake.

I do not think it will taste as good as using whey, but it will certainly still work to create a great texture for this bread.

Tip #3 You have got to whip those egg white to very stiff peaks which could take 10-15 minutes. If you can flip over your bowl and they don't fall out, they are ready.

Tip #5 Make sure you have fresh cream of tartar and fresh baking powder or you won't get that height and it will sink in the center.

Tip #7 Shut your oven off but do not open the door! Let your loaf stay in the oven for 10 minutes before removing.

Tip #8 Set your loaf pan on one side to cool for 30 minutes which will help prevent it from deflating. Then turn over to the other side for another 30 minutes. Leave alone until it's completely cool before removing.

If you need this to be dairy free, try subbing the sour cream with coconut cream or make your own homemade dairy free sour cream and use egg white protein powder.

The orginial recipe used only ⅓ cup or 1.5 ounces of whey protein powder. I've made this quite a few times since I posted this recipe and have increased the protein powder to see if it would make a difference in how well the loaf kept it's height.

I adjusted the whey protein powder just slightly and it results in a better loaf. I also have found cooking loaf on the middle shelf of the oven is best to cook through properly and mine was done in 50 minutes as opposed to 60min. When I've made the sandwich buns they were done in 20 minutes as opposed to 30 min.

I first reduced the sour cream to 4 ounces and kept everything else the same. While that was good, it still was a bit wet and eggy.

My next revision was playing with the amount of protein powder. I upped my original amount of protein powder from ½ cup to ¾ cup and it made a great difference in the texture but I kept trying for perfection.
