What Are Cloud Eggs?

Separate the whites from the yolk and whip the egg whites to look like fluffy clouds.  Use the special cooking technique to create a great tasting healthy egg!!

Griddle Temp for Eggs

When making cloud eggs use the lowest setting on your gas griddle.  Preheat the griddle for 3-5 minutes before cooking your eggs.

Don’t use any wind guards when cooking these griddle cloud eggs because the flat top will get too hot.  If cooking other types of eggs on the griddle then set the burners to the medium setting.  

How To Cook Eggs On A Blackstone Griddle

Three differences when cooking cloud eggs and regular eggs on a Blackstone Griddle.  

  1. Use parchment paper when cooking the egg clouds.  This helps prevent sticking and over cooking the bottoms of the fluffy egg whites.  
  2. Another difference is the cooking temperature of a cloud egg and regular eggs.  Regular eggs need to be cooked on medium temperature where egg clouds get cooked on low temperature but is covered with a dome to create on oven effect.  
  3. When cooking regular eggs on a griddle, you want to use some sort of fat such as oil or butter on the flat top, but fluffy eggs should be cooked on parchment paper with no oil or butter.

Gather your ingredients.  Preheat the griddle on the lowest setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Do Cloud Eggs Taste Like?

Cloud eggs taste silky from the fluffy whites and creamy from the runny yolks.  These eggs have a unique taste all their own and are something that you must try.  Light and airy is what is described by this Blackstone griddle egg.  

Can I Bake Cloud Eggs?

Yes, bake cloud eggs on a parchment lined baking pan in a 350°F oven until whites are firm, about 6 minutes. Add the egg yolk and bake for about 3 minutes longer until yolk starts to set and whites are turning a little golden brown.

Can You Over Beat Egg Whites?

Yes, you can!! When beating the egg whites you will go from a liquid to a soft peak and then a stiff peak. You know that you have reached a stiff peak when you pull the beater out of the whites and some of the whites remain in the beater. If the whites come to a stiff peak and then start to separate and get chunky, you have gone too far.Stiff peak egg white beater.
