In our small guide below, we will discuss how to make cloud bread plus whether or not it's worth making compared to standard bread.
First of all, before we get into how to make this wonderful syn free bread, let's discuss first what it is. Cloud bread was created by people a couple of years back who wanted to avoid heavily carbohydrate bread according to their diet, this also worked out nicely for slimming world people as they could avoid syns in their bread due to it being made with SYN FREE ingredients.
Cloud bread has around half the calories of normal bread and has a good amount of protein due to egg whites being one of the main ingredients, the sweetener also makes it taste much more like normal bread.

We've listed the recipe for making your own syn free cloud bread below.
So if you can get syn free bread and make it right at home, you might be wondering why anyone would waste their syns on high-carb normal bread, well, this is because cloud bread does not taste the best and can have a slightly chewy texture.
Cloud bread although low in syns, is not filling or satisfying and take a fair amount of time to make for a small piece of bread. In comparison to normal bread where you can even use wholemeal as your healthy extra B, we would not recommend it daily.
To conclude, if you really want to save some syns or maybe you have used your whole syn allowance for the day and need bread for a meal, making your own syn free cloud bread could be a great option. But for replacing bread daily, we would not recommend it and would suggest using wholemeal bread as your HeXB instead to reduce syns, this is much more nutritional and satisfying.
