Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Butter (for greasing)
- Optional: grated cheese or herbs for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease it with butter to prevent sticking.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks into two large mixing bowls.
In the bowl with the yolks, add cream cheese, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until smooth and well-combined.
Using an electric mixer or a whisk, beat the egg whites in their separate bowl until stiff peaks form. This will take about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer on high speed.
Gently fold the yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites in small batches. Use a spatula and a light hand to maintain the airy texture.
Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds about 3 inches in diameter. Space them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
Optional: Sprinkle grated cheese or herbs over the top of each puff for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and set.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy on their own or topped with your favorite low-carb spreads, such as cream cheese, avocado, or nut butter.
