How to Make Low Carb High Protein Lemon Souffle

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar using an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.
  3. In a food processor, combine cottage cheese, erythritol (or sugar substitute), lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt. Process until completely smooth.
  4. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites. Use a spatula and fold from the bottom up.
  5. Spoon the mixture evenly into two small (6-ounce) ungreased ramekins.
  6. Place ramekins in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the baking pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a bain-marie for even cooking).
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the soufflés are puffed and golden brown, and a knife inserted off-center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy immediately for the best texture!
