MMM, they are great with LC syrup too! I need to make a batch, I've been lazy! I like to cook these on parchment paper too, it keeps the bottoms from getting oily and they never stick.

These did taste pretty good and I think if I was using real syrup, I could not tell the difference ( but since I don't eat the real stuff, I will never know).

I may try these again using different toppings and experimenting more.

I can't get over you people who are able to use the oopsies as burger buns, mine disintegrate. What are you doing different from the original recipe, anything?

I don't know what to tell you...I just followed the recipe.

I keep an oven thermometer in my oven all the time because it never cooks true to temp...it cooks way too hot... so I have to adjust the setting according to the thermometer...maybe that is your problem.

Mine never disintegrate, even under a Wendy's Baconator or (for Midwesterners) a Portillos Bacon Cheeseburger. I've made them exactly like the original recipe, or by adding a tablespoon or two of flax, lc flour or protein powder to the eggwhites. The ones with an addition are a bit sturdier, but they are all fine.

I think it might be a baking issue. Maybe baking them 5 minutes less, or 5 minutes longer, will help. Also, they are sturdier and more flexible after a day or two...at least mine are.

Thanks again for a great recipe, "cleochatra" aka Jamie!!

My oven temperature is fine, I have a thermometer in the oven that I read. Adding the flax or protein powder may help. It isn't that I don't like the oopsies, it is just that when I try to make a sandwich they fall apart. Hence, I have gone to eating my burgers wrapped with leaf lettuce or I make a flax "bread" that I use for open face sandwiches.

I've never had a problem with mine falling apart under a juicy burger - unless the oopsies weren't baked quite long enough, or weren't dried out enough when I stored them. It's kinda hard to get them dry enough in a high humidity area, since with all that cream cheese, they tend to absorb moisture from the air. But anyhow, I usually pop them in the toaster oven on the lightest setting just to dry out the outsides so that they don't stick to the plate and my fingers, before making a sandwich or burger.

Last time I made any, I mistakenly set the oven for 350F instead of 300F. They got very well done/browned, but surprisingly didn't burn, and weren't nearly as moist when I would get a pair out of the fridge to make a sandwich - I even skipped the toaster oven treatment a couple times when I used them for a sandwich with that batch. I may start baking them at a 325F and see if that helps them dry out a better, while not getting quite so browned.

Madam, maybe that is my problem, not letting them dry out enough or baking them long enough. I will try again. All I know is that the french toast looks way yummy too! Even if I don't get them sturdy enough for buns.

Mine don't hold up as well if I use them the first day I bake them. They are much more bready the next day (I leave them out overnight to dry out). After I let them sit a day they work like a charm. I just use the 3 egg, 3 oz cream cheese recipe - love these things!!!

I have to agree, they MUST dry out for a day to get the bread consistency...its funny cause I was thinking our friend Alton from food network could do a whole show on the chemical reactions that occur in the making of an ooopsie !

When I first take mine out of the oven they are very meringue like but magically overnight turn to bread.....

NGJ, I can picture Alton and his antics doing a show on oopsies. It would sure be entertaining.

OK, you guys, you got me in the mood to try the oopsies again and dry them out.

I am going to make some of those today. I really am totallah craving a Baconator. I am all for a Red Robin burger in a lettuce wrap, but when it comes to Wendy's I have got to get my groove bun on.

The worst thing about Oopsies is if I don't clean the whisks and the bowl right away, it takes forevs to get them cleaned off later!

Is the baconator a Wendy's burger? I don't eat out too often due to $$$ and I figure I can make stuff better here at home. But, I do like to have some options.

Yes, Wendy's makes the Baconator....I've never had one because I am not fond of Wendy's food but I heard they were really good.

That is so funny. Sounds exactly like what my daughter would do
