Can I use cottage cheese in cloud bread?

Yes! Cottage cheese adds moisture, protein, and a creamy texture that helps the bread hold together without flour. Blending it first makes the texture smooth and easy to fold into whipped egg whites.

Does Aldi’s sell cloud bread?

Some Aldi locations carry packaged cloud bread in the low-carb or keto section, but availability varies. Making your own at home with cottage cheese is often more cost-effective and fresher.

Is cloud bread healthy?

Yes, cloud bread can be a healthy option, particularly if you're watching your carbs. When made with cottage cheese, it packs a solid amount of protein while staying low in carbohydrates. It's also gluten-free and flourless, making it a good fit for keto, diabetic-friendly, and high-protein meal plans. Just be mindful of any added sugars if you're keeping things clean and simple.
