A low-carb substitute for sliced bread that's very useful for making sandwiches, burgers and bread pudding.
Ingredients
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 300 °F (150 °C).
- Separate the yolks from the whites. Add the cream of tartar to the yolks and beat until stiff.
- In a different bowl, combine yolks, sweetener (like Splenda), salt and cream cheese.
- Using a spatula, gently fold the egg yolk mixture in to the white mixture, taking care not to break down the whites.
- Spoon six mounds of the mixture on to a cookie sheet coated with non-stick cooking spray. Flatten slightly.
- Bake for 30 minutes. Allow to cool a few minutes on the cookie sheet before moving to a cooling rack.
- Note: based on a recipe from Cleochatra The Lighter Side of Low-Carb Blog

The instructions above are confusing. It states to seperate the yolks/whites into 2 mixtures, but both mixtures mention yolks. I guessed at which mixture should have yolks and which mixture is whites... but must have guessed wrong. The end mix combined was runny (even after blending each seperately for a long time with mixer)... I could not create "mounds" on the baking sheet. Please update instructions.

Admittedly I'm not really into the low/now carb diets, but tried these because it sounded yummy. I added 1/4 tsp onion powder and 1/2 tsp minced garlic for a more savory flavor. I really loved the light eggy taste, but found that I wanted more than one because they're so light. My husband, on the other hand, was not a fan. He disliked the texture and felt that when they cooled down they tasted moist inside. Not sure if they needed a few more minutes in the oven.

I finally made these and am very pleased! I omitted the splenda and added onion powder and pepper instead, to achieve a more savory result. And I always have eggs and cream cheese in the fridge, so I think I'll be making these very often.
