Ingredients

4 eggs, separated
½ teaspoon (2g) cream of tartar
4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, softened (see notes)
1 tablespoon (12g) sugar (optional)
⅓ teaspoon (2g) salt
½ teaspoon (1g) herbs (thyme, rosemary, and Italian herbs)
1 teaspoon (5g) minced garlic

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300℉ (150℃). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Have two medium mixing bowls ready. Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks and place them in separate bowls.
Add cream of tartar to egg whites and beat on high with a hand mixer until soft peaks form when the beater is raised.
Add cream cheese and sugar (if using) to the egg yolks. Mix thoroughly with a hand mixer until smooth, and no chunks are visible. Add the salt, herbs, and garlic.
Carefully fold the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture. Avoid deflating the egg white mixture as much as possible; you want it to be firm but foamy.
Spoon about a ¼ cup of the batter at a time onto the baking sheets, leaving space around each circle.
Bake for 16-20 minutes or until bread is slightly brown. The center should not jiggle when shaken. It should be a gorgeous golden on the outside and firm to the touch.
Let it cool completely on the parchment paper before serving.

Notes

Cream cheese substitutes include Neufchâtel, mascarpone, cottage cheese, ricotta, labneh, tofu, and vegan cream cheese.
