Ingredients
Scale
- 6 eggs, separated and at room temperature
- 0.5 teaspoon white vinegar
- 4 ounces cottage cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup whey protein powder
- 0.25 cup egg white protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Allulose (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for a French toast twist)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease and line a 5×9 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer, combine egg whites with the vinegar. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 10-15 minutes. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cottage cheese, baking powder, salt, whey protein powder, egg white protein powder, and Allulose until well mixed.
- Carefully fold the egg yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites in increments, ensuring you maintain that fluffy texture.
- Pour the combined mixture into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake on the middle shelf for approximately 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- After baking, turn off the oven, keeping the door closed; let the loaf sit inside for an additional 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
For best results, use room temperature egg whites and be gentle when folding mixtures together.
