Preheat the oven to 300Β°F (150Β°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Separate 2 of the eggs. Place the egg whites in a mixing bowl and the yolks in a separate bowl.
Add the cream cheese to the egg yolks and beat until smooth. Stir in almond flour and baking powder until well combined.
Beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking tray in four equal portions, spreading slightly to form rounds. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
While the cloud bread is baking, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In the same skillet, melt the butter, then crack in the remaining egg and cook to your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
Once the cloud bread is done, assemble the sandwich by layering two cloud bread rounds, two slices of bacon, the cooked egg, and sprinkling with chopped chives. Top with remaining cloud bread round.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb bacon and egg sandwich.
