Egg and Avocado Breakfast Sandwich with Cloud Bread
Breakfast sandwiches are a go-to for busy people all over the world, and it shouldn’t be any different for people living a low-carb lifestyle. This Keto Avocado Breakfast Sandwich is made with no-carb cloud bread, one of my favorites for sandwiches.
It’s a favorite because cloud bread is light and fluffy and allows the filling to take all the attention instead of being dense and heavy like some other keto bread loaves. Cloud bread is truly the perfect option for keto breakfast sandwiches.
Zero-carb cloud bread is super simple to make. It’s flaky and light and perfect for burger buns, wraps, and all types of sandwiches.
Where my coconut flour bread or even my pumpkin chia bread are both quite heavy in texture and flavor and best served toasted with butter, jam, or cream cheese, cloud bread is light and won’t overpower your sandwich.
You can add lettuce to this sandwich to make it into a keto BLT with cheese. You can also use a slice of turkey, ham, or chicken to take this sandwich up a notch and add more protein to your diet.
How to Make Cloud Bread
Cloud bread is made from only three ingredients: eggs, cream cheese, and cream of tarter.
In fact, you can skip the cream of tarter altogether and still come out with a pretty decent cloud bread. The trick is to try to use eggs that are room temperature so stiff peaks form when you beat them.
You can add other spices to your ingredient mix to make your cloud bread tastier. For instance, I’m using garlic powder here to kick things up a bit.

Instructions for Avocado Breakfast Sandwich
Please note that these instructions include how to make cloud bread.
- Preheat oven to 300ºF and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside
- Add the 4 egg whites and cream of tartar to the bowl of a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer. Mix on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the cream cheese with the egg yolks and the garlic powder. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Working in batches, gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cream cheese mixture with a spatula just until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Do not overwork.
- Spoon approximately a quarter cup of the mixture on the prepared baking sheets to create 8 circles. Gently spread the mixture into one-half-inch high circles, leaving some space between each circle. (The mounds will spread a bit while baking).
- Bake until the egg rounds become golden and fully set in the center, approximately 20-25 minutes
- Remove from the oven. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on four of the circles and return to the oven just until the cheese is melted, approximately 2 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and top each of the rounds with the melted cheddar with 2-3 avocado slices, a thin slice of tomato, and one strip of bacon broken in half. Top with the remaining egg rounds and serve immediately with 2 additional strips of crispy bacon on the side. Enjoy!
Because of the texture of cloud bread, I would only make enough to last one day. You can leave it out on the counter in an airtight container for a day or place it in your fridge for up to 3 days. I wouldn’t store cloud bread for any longer as it just doesn’t hold up well to reheating.
Variations to Try
You can use other keto-friendly bread with this avocado breakfast sandwich. Here are a few you can try.
Cloud bread isn’t for everybody. It has a slightly different texture than regular keto bread.
You can also add different meats if bacon isn’t your thing (but, seriously, who doesn’t love bacon?). You can top this egg and avocado breakfast sandwich with turkey, ham, roast beef, chicken or whatever other meats you prefer.
Don’t want any meat on it? Skip the meat then!
