½ cup full-fat cottage cheese
¼ tsp cream of tartar
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whip the egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, egg yolks, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using) until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture, keeping it light and airy.
- Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in small rounds, about the size of a biscuit.

Notes
Adding herbs like rosemary or thyme can enhance flavor.
Swap garlic powder for onion powder or smoked paprika for variation.
Add shredded mozzarella or Parmesan for a cheesy version.
For a sweet twist, omit garlic and salt, add cinnamon or keto-friendly sweetener.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days.
Reheat in toaster oven at 300°F for 5 minutes; avoid microwaving.
Freeze with parchment paper between each bread for up to 2 months.
