Eggs in Clouds is a delightful breakfast dish that combines the fluffy texture of clouds with the richness of eggs. Originating from Japan, this dish is also known as Cloud Eggs or Tamago Kumo. It features egg whites beaten until stiff peaks form, then gently folded with egg yolks and cooked in a skillet until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft and fluffy. Often served with a sprinkle of herbs, grated cheese, or a drizzle of hot sauce, Eggs in Clouds offer a light and airy alternative to traditional fried or scrambled eggs. This recipe also includes two variations: Cheesy Cloud Eggs, where grated cheese is added to the egg mixture before cooking, and Cloud Egg Muffins, where the mixture is baked in muffin tins for a portable and protein-packed breakfast option.

CLOUD EGGS RECIPE
Steps:
- Serve immediately. Cloud eggs don't store well and are not the best option for meal prepping eggs to eat another day. If you want to make eggs ahead of time, try hard-boiled eggs or a baked egg frittata or muffins.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Coat 4 small bowls with nonstick cooking spray. Separate the eggs and put the whites into a medium bowl and the yolks in the small bowls (1 yolk per bowl). Add a large pinch of salt to the egg whites and beat with an electric mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Dollop 4 large spoonfuls of the egg whites onto the prepared baking sheet and make a small well in the middle of each with the back of a spoon. Bake the whites until they are firm, no longer wet and just beginning to turn brown, about 6 minutes. Gently pour 1 yolk into the well of each white. Bake until the edges of the yolk just start to set while still being runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt.
