Ingredients

  • 4 pasture-raised organic eggs, separated
  • 1 1/2 cups organic plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup pasture-raised egg white powder (not egg white protein powder)
  • 1 tsp Bob's Red Mill Baking Soda
  • Same optional sweeteners, flavors, and toppings as the 3-ingredient version

Method

  1. This follows the 3-ingredient method. Beat the whites to peaks, mix the yolks with the yogurt, egg white powder, and baking soda, and fold the two together. Bake in an 8-inch pan at 350°F for 30 minutes, cool in the oven with the door cracked for 15-20 minutes, and chill before slicing.
