GramnGramps "Bread"

Posted by Solitary Dancer on October 1, 2006

Faux Bread


Basic Recipe:

6 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
4 egg yolks
3 ounces softened cream cheese
pinch of salt

Beat egg whites & cream of tartar until VERY stiff. Turn bowl upside down & if the whites don’t slide, they are stiff enough.

In a small bowl mix together the other ingredients. Gently fold the yolk into the whites using a spatula.

Generously spray a couple of cookie sheets with pam.
Spoon out mixture into piles on cookie sheets. I spread the mixture out to about the size of a slice of bread. Don’t get it too thin or it will be too crisp. I usually get 10-12 “slices” depending on the size of the eggs.

Bake at 300 degrees about 35 minutes. They will be lightly browned.

Using a spatula, remove them to a wire rack to cool. When cool, put them in a ziplock bag and store in refrigerator. Make some holes in the bag so they won’t get soggy.

We eat them with hamburgers instead of buns. They are GREAT!

    This is the same as revolution rolls from Atkins, but with fewer egg yolks. Try adding flax meal, salt, and a little guar gum for more chewiness and flavor. You can also make thise into pastries by adding splenda and cinnamon. Top with SF syrup for a real treat!
