Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
- 4 bacon strips
- 4 Gouda cheese slices
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Separate the egg whites from the yolks, placing them in separate bowls.
Step 3
Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
Step 4
In another bowl, mix the egg yolks with the cream cheese and baking powder until well combined.
Step 5
Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites, being careful not to deflate the whites.
Step 6
Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to create 4 round 'buns.'
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until golden and set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Step 8
While the buns are cooling, cook the bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on paper towels to drain excess grease.
Step 9
In the same skillet, melt the butter, then reduce the heat to low and add the Gouda slices, allowing them to slowly melt to your desired consistency.
Step 10
Assemble each sandwich by layering one cloud bread bun with 2 Gouda cheese slices, 2 bacon strips, 2 lettuce leaves, and a few tomato slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 11
Top each sandwich with another cloud bread bun, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
