Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
3 large eggs
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 dash salt
1 pinch cream of tartar (preferred but optional)
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 300°F (about 150°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking liner.
-
Separate the eggs into two bowls — egg whites in one, yolks in the other.
-
Add the softened cream cheese and salt to the yolks, then blend with an electric mixer until smooth.
-
Optionally sprinkle cream of tartar on the egg whites, then whip them with a clean electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
-
Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the whipped egg whites using a spatula. Try not to break down the fluffy whites.
-
Spoon about 6 mounds of the batter onto the baking pan. For taller rolls, leave the mounds as is; for more dense roll shapes, slightly flatten each mound.
-
Bake for about 25–30 minutes. Do not overbake or they may become crumbly.
-
Allow the rolls to cool on the baking pan for 3–5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Storage/Reheating
Once cooled, these rolls can be stored at room temperature for a few days if eaten soon. For longer freshness, keep them in the refrigerator, loosely covered or in a bag with a bit of air left inside so they don’t get soggy. You can also freeze them — separate with wax paper and thaw at room temperature when ready to eat. To reheat, warm briefly in a toaster oven or standard oven to restore texture.
FAQs
How low‑carb is this recipe?
Each roll contains only about 0.6 grams of net carbs, so it’s ideal for keto and low‑carb diets.
Can I make these dairy‑free?
Yes, you can try substituting dairy‑free cream cheese or even a thick dairy‑free yogurt alternative, though texture may vary slightly.
Why are the eggs separated?
Separating helps whip the egg whites to stiff peaks, giving the bread its fluffy, airy texture.
What if I don’t have cream of tartar?
Cream of tartar helps stabilize the egg whites, but you can skip it or use a small amount of vinegar as a substitute.
Can I use these as hamburger buns?
Yes — they’re great as burger buns, especially if you slightly flatten the mounds before baking.
How can I add more flavor?
You can fold in herbs, spices, or garlic powder before baking to customize flavor.
Can I add sesame seeds on top?
Sprinkling sesame or other seeds before baking adds texture and a more traditional bun look.
Will these become soggy in the fridge?
Yes, they can become a bit soggy if stored tightly sealed while still warm. Cool completely first and store loosely covered or use a paper towel.
Can I double the recipe?
It’s best to make one batch at a time; too much batter can deflate the egg whites and affect texture.
How do I reheat them?
Warm them briefly in a toaster oven or regular oven for a few minutes to revive texture before eating.
