Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 large large eggs, separated (whites in one bowl, yolks in another)
  • 3 tablespoons cream cheese (softened) or Greek yogurt Use Greek yogurt for a tangier version.
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar Helps whites get fluffy, but optional.
  • a pinch salt
Optional Flavor Additions
  • garlic powder, onion powder, Italian herbs, or a tiny bit of sweetener for a sweet version

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Separate the eggs carefully, placing the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another.
  3. In the bowl with the yolks, mix the egg yolks with softened cream cheese and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  4. In the bowl with the whites, add cream of tartar if using, and beat the whites until they form stiff peaks.
  5. Gently fold the yolk mixture into the egg whites, taking care to maintain the airy texture.
  6. Scoop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet into 6 to 8 rounds, smoothing them slightly without flattening.
Baking

Notes

Use clean, dry bowls for whipping. Be patient while beating egg whites to stiff peaks. Fold gently to preserve airiness. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
