Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate 2 egg whites from yolks. Set yolks aside in a bowl and place the whites in a mixing bowl.
Add cream of tartar to the egg whites and beat them using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold in the coconut flour and baking powder into the beaten egg whites until evenly mixed.
Spoon the egg white mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, making 4 even-sized rounds for your cloud bread.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until they are golden brown and set. Allow them to cool slightly.
While the cloud bread is baking, heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the bacon slices until crispy, then remove and drain on paper towels.
Wipe the skillet clean and use it to cook the remaining 2 eggs sunny-side-up or to your preference. Season with salt and pepper.
To assemble, place a cloud bread round on a plate, top with 2 slices of crispy bacon, one cooked egg, and sprinkle with chives and a squeeze of lemon juice. Top with another cloud bread round.
Repeat for the second sandwich and serve immediately.
