INGREDIENTS
4 eggs
½ tsp cream of tartar
2 tbsp room temperature cream cheese
(optional) sesame seeds
(optional) Italian herb seasoning

HARDWARE
two large bowls
small bowl for cracking egg
baking sheet
parchment paper/silicone baking mat
method of whisking (stand mixer, hand mixer, whisk)


DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 300°F / 150°C.
2. Separate the eggs whites from the egg yolks and place both into separate bowls. When cracking the eggs, separate each one into a third bowl. This way, if the yolk cracks, you can discard that egg and use another. The egg whites must be strictly egg whites with no bits of yolk, or they wont form the necessary peaks.
3. Once the egg whites are separated into a bowl, add the cream of tartar. Then, using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, a whisk, or a hand mixer, whip the whites until they form stiff peaks that stand on their own. Stiff peaks are absolutely crucial - it can't form ribbons, they MUST form peaks (see video for example). This will take several minutes, but once you have stiff peaks, set aside.
4. Add the cream cheese to the egg yolk and whip until the mixture is even and silky smooth. If the cream cheese is not at room temperature, it will have small chunks that will appear as white pieces in the mixture. We want to avoid this. If you don't have cream cheese, you can also use sour cream or Greek yogurt.
5. Check that your egg whites are still forming stiff peaks and have not had any egg whites liquefy. If there are liquefied eggs, beat again until you have the desired consistency.
6. Add the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture and gently fold the two together. We dont want to lose the airiness of the egg whites, so be gentle!
7. Line a baking pan with a silicone mat or a sheet of parchment paper (silicone mat provides a crispier texture).
8. Using a ladle, spoon enough of the mixture to make the desired shape of the bun you want. Hamburger bun size seems to work best.
9. (OPTIONAL) Sprinkle some sesame seeds, Italian herb seasoning, or even some garlic powder atop the buns to provide a different flavor!
10. Place into the oven for ~30 minutes or until golden brown. When you remove them, if the center jiggles, it needs more time.
11. Let cool for a few minutes, then remove from the baking tray. Store in airtight bag in fridge.
12. Best if consumed within 3 days!
13. Enjoy!

TIP: The best way to reheat them is in a pan over low heat. Since they are eggs, they can burn quickly, so flip it after 30-60 seconds and pull off after another 30 seconds.
