Ingredients
-
3 large eggs, separated
-
3 tablespoons reduced-fat cream cheese
-
Pinch of salt
-
½ teaspoon sugar (Optional)
Directions
-
Position oven racks in the upper and lower third of the oven. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or a baking mat. Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. In another medium bowl, beat egg yolks, cream cheese, salt and sugar, if using, with the electric mixer until well combined. Add half of the yolk mixture to the bowl with the egg whites and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Repeat with the remaining yolk mixture.
-
Using about 1/3 cup batter for each, spread the batter into eight 3 1/2-inch disks on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, switching the position of the pans from top to bottom halfway through, until the bread is light golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Tips
To make ahead: Refrigerate breads in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
