- Why did it flatten?
- You didn't beat the whites stiff enough, or you mixed them too roughly with the yolks, deflating the air bubbles. Be gentle!
- Sticking to the paper?
- It hasn't baked enough or cooled down. It is very fragile when hot; let it cool on the paper.
Oopsie Bread - Low Carb Cloud Bread
The name 'Oopsie' comes from a kitchen mistake, but the result was genius: a flourless, cloud-like 'bread' that is essentially a savory baked egg foam. A savior for keto and gluten-free dieters, it functions perfectly as a sandwich base despite not tasting exactly like sourdough.

Instructions
1
✓
Separate the eggs. Whip the egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form.
Tip: The bowl must be grease-free, or whites won't whip. Salt stabilizes the foam.
2
✓
Mix the egg yolks with cream cheese and baking powder until smooth.
Tip: Cream cheese adds 'body' and fat, while baking powder aids structure.
3
✓
Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Do not overmix!
Tip: Air is your only structure here; treat it like porcelain.
4
✓
Spoon 6 mounds onto parchment paper and bake at 300°F (150°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden.
Tip: Low heat dries the dough so it doesn't feel like scrambled eggs.
5
✓
Let cool completely on the baking sheet.
Tip: The structure firms up as it cools.
