Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    What to look for: Low oven temperature is key for pillowy texture

    Watch out: Too high heat will crack the bread; Must use parchment - sticks to everything else

  2. Step 2: Whip egg whites with sugar until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes with electric mixer.

    What to look for: Glossy, stiff peaks that hold their shape upside down

    Watch out: Any yolk or grease will prevent whipping; Under-whipping = flat cloud bread

  3. Step 3: Gently fold in cornstarch and vanilla. Add food coloring if desired.

    What to look for: Even color, still fluffy and voluminous

    Watch out: Over-folding deflates the mixture; Add color before cornstarch for even distribution

  4. Step 4: Mound onto baking sheet in a cloud shape, about 8 inches wide and 3 inches tall.

    What to look for: Tall, rounded mound with smooth surface

    Watch out: Don't flatten it - height is the whole point; Leave space between if making multiple

  5. Step 5: Bake for 25 minutes until outside is set and lightly golden. Let cool 5 minutes.

    What to look for: Light golden exterior, still soft and marshmallowy inside

    Watch out: Will deflate slightly - that's normal; Eating warm is best - stales quickly
