- Hey guys, this is Inga,
and today I'm gonna be trying to make the super fluffy
cloud bread using only three ingredients,
and none of them will be flour products.
So recently I feel like this cloud bread has been blowing up
on the internet, specifically on Tiktok,
it's like everywhere on my For You Page.
It's basically this really poofy and extremely fluffy
almost meringue like cake that ends up looking like a cloud
because of how light it is.
What's really interesting is that the original cloud bread,
has actually been around for quite a while.
I think the last one that blew up
was a keto friendly version.
The way you would make it was using some cream of tartar,
some eggs and some Greek yogurt or cream cheese.
But this version is a little more indulgent
and also a lot fluffier,
so I think you guys will like it a lot.
It also looks super simple and super straightforward,
so I am very excited to test it out, let's get started.
So for ingredients, all you need are three egg whites,
which we will separate later,
30 grams of sugar,
which is around two and a half tablespoons,
10 grams of cornstarch,
which averages out to around a little over a tablespoon,
that's about it.
This is all you need to make that crazy fluffy bread,
you've probably been seeing everywhere.
For fun though, you can add some food coloring,
so I also grabbed my Blue Magic Powder,
because it is this beautifully vibrant shade of blue
to make it a little more colorful.
Now I'm just gonna go preheat my oven
to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and you guys can follow along
if you want to, this could just be
a really fun little project.
First thing we're gonna do is just
to separate our egg whites from our egg yolks.
What I like doing is just cracking them all open
and then scooping the egg yolks out,
it's like the cleanest way to do it.
And don't throw your eggs away
because you can do so much with this,
you can make carbonara or just cure them.
For now we're just gonna set that aside,
got my egg whites in here.
I am going to go ahead and put them in a bigger mixing bowl
and grab your whisk because here we go again,
it is our muscle time, we are going to whip these egg whites
and gradually add our sugar in.
And I am getting Dalgona coffee flashbacks.
(upbeat music)
Nine minutes in, and I am sweating.
But since this is the way I saw them do it
in the viral Tiktoks, this is what I'm gonna use.
I'm gonna start timing this.
(whisk clanking)
Once I see it start forming up a little bit,
I'm gonna add, sprinkle of sugar.
(whisk clanking)
I told myself I wouldn't do this again, but here I am.
(whisk clanking)
Oh my God, me arms!
(whisk clanking)
More sugar.
(whisk clanking)
Wooh, okay!
We're getting super soft peaks, we need stiff peaks,
so we have still quite a way to go.
(whisk clanking)
It is looking pretty good,
this is a good time to add in the corn starch.
(whisk clanking)
Almost, almost, almost, almost.
(whisk clanking)
(gasps)
You guys, that is a stiff peak and it is not gonna fall,
that's when you know you've done it right.
And this is around how long I've gone for,
it's like 10 minutes and 30 seconds.
Very straightforward, but definitely time consuming,
if you do not have fun gadgets to help you.
So what I have to do now is, well,
first to rest your arms, if you need it,
I also have a baking sheet prepped here
with some parchment paper,
and we're just going to shape this on our tray
into a perfect mound of fluffiness.
But also remember how I said I wanted to test out the blue?
So I am going to actually half this and mix some of this
with the blue magic powder.
Mix it up, you see how that turns it into
a very, very light shade of blue.
I feel like I'm painting a little bit.
Wow, it's really pretty though.
Here's what I have,
I am going to plop this on my baking tray.
Just gonna do a little bit of like alternating,
it doesn't have to be perfect yet.
Look at this blue and white though.
It looks a little bit like clouds, right?
Hopefully it's going to turn out like that.
Now I have all of it on my baking sheet,
I'm just gonna shape it,
so that it has that beautifully smoothed out top.
(soft music)
Okay, you guys, here's what I have,
look at this blue and white mount.
This is my cloud bread.
I really tried to make it look as close
to a cloud painting as possible,
I hope I didn't take too much time,
but it literally weighs nothing.
So I'm gonna pop this in the oven now
and wait for around 20 minutes.
And then I can show you guys,
what the final product looks like.
I am excited!
Cloud bread going in, see you soon.
It's done, okay, hold on.
Oh my God, look at it, look at this poofy little thing.
It is literally like this little pillow of fluffiness.
I know this deflates if we let it sit too long,
so I am going to very quickly try to scoop it out,
but I am very excited, it has definitely kept its shape.
Oh my God, you guys.
Carefully peel it off.
Yeah, it's hot but we gotta do this, ready?
We're going to just open this,
and oh my goodness.
You guys look at this,
it is truly magnificent.
Wow, spongy texture, these kinda look like clouds, right?
It is so light and fluffy and it smells,
it smells very eggy.
Wow, I mean, look at it, it's like so light.
I love how it ended up being,
this like super light blue and white,
it's like fluffy clouds on a blue sky, it's so pretty.
I'm just gonna take a bite while it's still hot.
It's so interesting because when you eat it,
it's actually not that sweet.
Right now when I'm pressing down on it,
the texture feels like it would be almost
like a marshmallow, but when you eat it,
even though I feel like this is very heavily meringue based,
it's not so much of a melt in your mouth sort of texture.
And I think the exterior is actually a little bit chillier,
but the inside is super soft.
I really think the closest thing to this,
would be like a sponge cake.
Isn't that so crazy that there's like no flour in this?
Genuinely so surprised,
to be able to get this much volume and this sort of texture,
knowing that you only have three ingredients,
is pretty, pretty cool.
I also think there's so much more you can do with this bread
in terms of like patterns and flavors.
Like you could make a Masha flavored one.
If you get the whisking part down,
this is truly one of those things
that I think is worth a try.
So I would give it pretty high points
for both flavor and texture.
That's it, this is the super fluffy cloud bread.
I think you guys can have so much fun with this.
So give it a try and I will see you guys next time
for when I try out the next viral recipe, cheers.
