Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Romano cheese, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the whites in a mixing bowl and the yolks in a separate bowl.
Whip the egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
In another bowl, combine the egg yolks, softened cream cheese, salt, and baking powder. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in small batches, careful not to deflate the whites.
Scoop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, creating small round mounds about 3-4 inches in diameter. You should get about 8 rounds for 4 sandwiches.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are firm and lightly golden. Let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
While the cloud bread is baking, heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil.
Add the spinach leaves and cook until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine grated Romano cheese, heavy cream, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Mix until creamy.
To assemble the sandwich, spread the cheese mixture on the inside of one cloud bread piece.
Top with wilted spinach and sandwich with another piece of cloud bread.
Repeat with the remaining cloud bread and filling ingredients to make additional sandwiches.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb creamy Romano cheese sandwich!
