Ingredients

• 6 eggs, separated (room temperature)
• ½ teaspoon white vinegar
• 4 ounces cottage cheese
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¾ cup whey protein powder
• ¼ cup egg white protein powder
• 1 tablespoon Allulose (optional)
• Optional toppings: bagel seasoning
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for French Toast only)

Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prep Egg Whites

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Place your egg whites in a stand mixer or use an electric hand mixer along with a splash of vinegar.

Whip the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form, which should take about 10-15 minutes.

Once done, set the egg whites aside.

Step 2: Combine Egg Yolks and Remaining Ingredients

In a separate bowl, place the egg yolks and the remaining ingredients.

Whisk everything together until well combined.

Alternatively, you can add these ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.

Step 3: Fold Mixtures Together

Gently fold a small amount of the egg yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites, incorporating it a little at a time until everything is well mixed.

Take care to keep the mixture airy.

Step 4: Pour and Bake

Pour the combined mixture into a parchment-lined and greased 9 by 5 loaf pan.

If you are making rolls, use a parchment-lined baking sheet or a silicone mold pan.

Place the pan on the middle shelf of the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 5: Rest and Serve

Once the baking time is up, shut the oven off but do not open the door.

Allow the loaf or rolls to remain in the oven for an additional 10 minutes.

After this, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.

Step 6: Enjoy

Enjoy your bread warm, toasted with a little butter, or cooled and used for sandwiches.
