About

These fluffy clouds are all egg! Each cloud is whipped up with crispy bacon and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, and they cradle a soft-baked egg yolk. Enjoy alongside some keto toast with avocado or another favorite Carb Manager breakfast recipe!

Ingredients

2 slice – 6" long bacon
2 large raw egg
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ cup, shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

Preheat an oven to 325 degrees and line a small baking tray with parchment paper – set this aside. Cook to pieces of bacon over a stovetop to a crisp. Allow the bacon to cool, then chop it into bacon bits.
While your bacon is cooling, separate your eggs. Set the yolks aside, but keep them intact. Set the egg whites in a stand mixer and whip them to stiff peaks.
Use a spatula to fold in the salt, pepper, cheddar cheese, and bacon bits into the egg whites, being careful not to completely deflate the eggs.
Divide the mixture into 2 portions (or more if you are making more servings), and set them on the baking tray. Use your spatula or a spoon to create pockets in the center of each egg cloud.
Bake the egg clouds for 10 minutes. Then, set the reserved egg yolks in the center of each egg cloud and bake for an additional 10 minutes for over-medium yolks. Garnish with freshly chopped chives and enjoy!
