3tablespoonsroom temperature full-fat cream cheese
2 to 3dropsliquid stevia , optional
¼teaspooncream of tartar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 300F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In one bowl, combine the egg yolks with the softened cream cheese and stevia until you have a smooth batter.
In a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, place egg whites and cream of tartar. Whisk the egg whites on medium speed, moving up to high speed until they are fluffy and stiff peaks have formed.
With a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites until combined.
Scoop the mixture onto the baking sheets with a spoon and shape them into ¾-inch thick, 4-inch rounds.
Bake approximately for 30 minutes, until they are golden. *NOTE that cooking times will vary as this is a very delicate recipe and all ovens vary slightly. Check for doneness without opening the oven door around minute 22.
Once done, remove from the oven and allow them to cool down completely.
Transfer them to a zip bag for storage and refrigerate (see notes).
Notes
These bread rounds need to be stored in a zip bag or plastic bag to retain their soft, chewy, bread-like texture. Left out overnight will cause them to dry and turn into a meringue-like round, which will crack easily and turn into dust.
