3 Tablespoons ricotta cheese 64 cal (or 1/3 cup fat free or light Greek yogurt which is 61 cal)
1/8 teaspoon salt 0 cal
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 1 cal
3 eggs 215 cal
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 2 cal
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Add ricotta cheese, salt and garlic to a large bowl and stir to combine.
Separate eggs placing the yolks in the bowl with the ricotta cheese and placing the whites in a separate clean bowl.
Stir egg yolks into ricotta mixture and set bowl aside.
Add cream of tartar to egg whites and beat at high speed until peaks form, usually about 5 minutes.
Gently fold egg whites into ricotta mixture, being careful not to stir too much and deflate the egg whites.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop about ¼ cup of batter to make 1 round. About 6 rounds will fit on each baking sheet.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until top is browned.

Average bread slice 50-60 calories
This bread: 23 cals
Even less if I slice them in half for buns!
Can be frozen for later use, but makes bread softer, less crispy. Refrigerate when storing. Slice in half for sandwiches! Pretty neutral flavor, slightly eggy but good with anything! Going to try garlic bread with fat free mozzarella first maybe? Or toasted with sugar free jam.. mini pizzas? 2.5 of these equal one of my tortillas.. hmm..
This is so good and it frankly makes me happy something this yummy and low cal exists.
