3-Ingredient Keto Cloud Bread

Servings: 6 Total Time: 40 mins

I still remember when I started my first recipe website back in 2014. I was trying to make a keto bread recipe and kept failing over and over again. It was frustrating! There just wasn’t the wealth of information we have today… No fabulous recipe websites, and far less knowledge about the keto diet than what’s available now.

Today, in 2025, I decided to redeem myself! After 5 failed attempts, I managed to make a keto cloud bread recipe with just 3 ingredients that turned out really delicious! I nailed it with a delicious, fluffy, light, and low-carb bread.

Fluffy 3-Ingredient Keto Bread

I admit it was a real challenge to find the right balance between all the ingredients to make the bread truly tasty and low-carb, but I did it! With the help of several TikTok videos and comparing keto recipes I searched for on Google, I managed to make a simply delicious bread!

As always, I’ll give you the recipe on a silver platter, so you can make it and enjoy it to the fullest.

Here’s What You Will Need

Before you begin, I have to admit something: I actually used 5 ingredients to make this keto bread. The truth is, you could totally make this recipe with 3 ingredients, but the other two ingredients I added are so basic and make the recipe so much better that I see no reason to omit them! I told you the same in the 3-Ingredient Bread Without Yeast recipe

To help you understand why I added them, see the list of ingredients below.

Ingredients for 3-Ingredient Keto Cloud Bread
Ingredients you will need: Eggs, baking powder, Greek yogurt, vinegar, and salt.
  • 3 large eggs (150 g) – Eggs are the foundation of this keto bread, which is why I like to opt for free-range eggs. I usually buy them from my neighbor, who has some chickens on her property that lay unparalleled free-range eggs!
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder (1 g) – We’re making cloud bread, so baking powder is unavoidable. Without baking powder, the bread won’t rise and will be very dense. Be careful not to use expired baking powder; this has happened to me before, and the bread simply didn’t rise. I had to do it all over again!
  • ⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt (80 g) – I’ve tried this recipe without Greek yogurt and I have to admit… It was terrible! The Greek yogurt adds moisture and tenderness to the bread and gives it a much better flavor and texture.
  • ¼ teaspoon apple cider vinegar (1 ml, optional) – You’re thinking we’re adding apple cider vinegar for flavor, right? Jorge thought so too! In fact, vinegar is essential not for flavor, but for consistency! Vinegar stabilizes the egg whites, helping them whip into firmer peaks.
  • Pinch of salt (1 g, optional) – Again, salt isn’t just for flavoring bread! Salt strengthens egg whites slightly, making them more airy, taller, and fluffier!

Now that you know what you need, let’s get to the recipe! I took photos of every step so you can follow the recipe quickly and easily.

Step-by-Step Instructions

I’ve photographed as many steps as possible to help you make this recipe simply. Shall we get started?

Preheat your oven to 300ºF (150ºC), this is essential so we don’t waste time when we have the keto cloud bread ready to put in the oven!

First of all you need to prepare the eggs, one thing I want to tell you right now is that I recommend that you use eggs at room temperature for easier whipping.

Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks into two separate bowls. Beat the egg whites with the vinegar and a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form, using an electric mixer.

An important tip I like to share whenever I can is: Don’t overmix egg whites! Why? It’s simple! Because they’ll collapse. In fact, I have my mom to thank for always reminding me of this when I started making some of her recipes.

In the other bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the Greek yogurt and baking powder until smooth and lump-free, because nobody likes batter with lumps, right?

Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, using upward motions with a spatula to avoid deflating them, as shown in the image below.

Line a baking tray with parchment paper and, using a spoon, form small mounds spaced apart.

Now comes the best part! You just need to bake for 30 minutes at 300ºF to have your delicious keto bread ready…. It couldn’t be simpler!

To make sure nothing goes wrong, don’t make the same mistake I did… I opened the oven too early to check on the bread while it was baking, well, it flattened in the next few seconds! So, follow this golden tip and don’t open the oven too early. Wait at least 25 minutes before opening the oven.

How to Store and Reheat Keto Cloud Bread

If you’re like Jorge and me, you hate waste! If so, I have good news: I know how long this bread will last, refrigerated or not.

  • If you plan to store the bread at room temperature, it will only last for about a day. After this time, the bread will become hard and have a very crunchy texture (but not in a good way!).
  • If you don’t think you’ll eat all of the bread, you can store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. Any longer than that, and the bread will lose its texture.
  • If you want to preserve the bread for longer, you have to put it in the freezer. It keeps perfectly well for 2 months, you just need to store it in a feezing bag. When you’re ready to eat it, just let it thaw naturally at room temperature, about 20 minutes is more than enough here at home!

It’s very important to save all uneaten food to avoid waste, but it’s also important to avoid eating spoiled food. Always be very careful, as it’s easy to get food poisoning. Jorge can attest to that… It happened to him, and it wasn’t pretty!

Flavor Variations You’ll Love!

First of all, since this is a keto recipe, we don’t have the freedom to add whatever we want! However, there are always alternatives to give this bread a good flavor.

I did some experimenting with different flavors, but not many, so I’ll just share with you what I tried.

  • One thing I tried was adding a pinch of garlic powder and dried oregano to the bread, and it gave it a much more intense flavor! In fact, it was excellent as an appetizer if we cut it into strips!
  • Another variation I tried was folding in 2 tablespoons of finely grated Parmesan before baking, which gave the bread a richer flavor and crispier edges. I used BelGioioso cheese, which is available at Target.

In fact, these were the two variations I tried, so that’s all I recommend! If you’d like to get creative and try new variations, share your experience with us in the comments.
