Light as air and genuinely satisfying, these airy rounds are built entirely from eggs, cream cheese, and a handful of pantry staples — no flour of any kind, not even a gluten-free blend. That makes them a natural fit for anyone who needs to skip wheat without hunting down specialty products or worrying about cross-contact from shared processing lines. The technique is the magic here: whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks and folding them carefully into the yolk-and-cream-cheese base creates a batter that bakes up into golden, pillowy rounds with a delicate crunch on the outside and a soft, cloud-like center. A touch of honey adds just enough warmth to balance the richness of the cream cheese, while optional garlic powder and flaky sea salt let you lean savory if that's the direction you're going. They come together in under 40 minutes and make six generous servings, so there's plenty to go around for a weekend brunch or a light lunch spread. Use them as a sandwich base, a burger bun swap, or just eat them warm off the pan — honestly, that last option is hard to resist.

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and softened cream cheese together with the electric mixer on medium speed until completely smooth and no lumps remain, about 2 minutes. Beat in the honey until combined. If using garlic powder, stir it in now.
