Ingredients
- 3 eggs separated
- 3 tablespoons whole milk cottage cheese or cream cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F
- Very carefully separate the eggs. There must be NO YOLK in the whites.
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together the EGG YOLKS, and Cottage/Cream Cheese until smooth.
- In another bowl (metal or glass - NEVER plastic for beating egg whites!) add 1/4 tsp cream of tartar to EGG WHITES and mix on high speed until they are fluffy and form stiff peaks.
- Gently fold egg yolk mixture into egg whites until mixed. Careful not break down the fluffiness of the egg whites too much.
- Spray two cookie sheets with cooking spray.
- Scoop the mixture into 10 even rounds on sheets (about the size of a hamburger bun).
- Bake on middle rack for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and cool on a rack or cutting board.
Notes
Fresh out of the oven, they're kinda crumbly - like meringue. However, once they're completely cooled, seal them in a plastic baggie overnight... and their consistency transforms to one similar to bread - a softer texture that is nice and chewy.
