Ingredients

• 5 large Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 4 slices Bacon strips
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoons Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Separate 3 eggs, placing the whites in a medium-sized bowl and yolks in a separate bowl.

Step 3

Mix the egg yolks with the cream cheese and baking powder until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4

Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

Step 5

Gently fold the yolk mixture into the stiff egg whites, being careful not to deflate them.

Step 6

Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming four small circles, roughly similar in size to English muffin halves.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until golden and set.

Step 8

While the cloud bread is baking, cook the bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Step 9

In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, reserving just a small amount. Cook the remaining 2 eggs sunny-side up or to your preferred doneness. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Step 10

Once the cloud bread is done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

Step 11

Assemble the sandwiches by placing a slice of cheddar cheese on the underside of one cloud bread round, then a slice of bacon, followed by an egg, another slice of bacon, another slice of cheese, and top with another cloud bread round.

Step 12

Repeat for the second sandwich.

Step 13

If desired, melt a small amount of butter in the skillet and lightly toast each assembled sandwich on both sides to help melt the cheese.

Step 14

Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb bacon and egg McMuffin!
