TikTok is like the newer, cooler sibling of Pinterest when it comes to recipes. That's mainly due to the platform's highly-engaging quick video format. Where you can see all the best angles of a tasty dish (or beverage) without taking up too much of your time.
There's actually been quite a few trends to come out of the recipe sector on TikTok. Here's my top 5 picks you need to try now.
Whipped Coffee
But first, coffee. Any other coffee fanatics out there? I can't start my day without it. This is an interesting take on your regular cup of joe though. Made from instant coffee powder, sugar, and hot water, it's like frothy, coffee-ier version of a Starbucks frappuccino. And probably less than half the cost.
Usual equal parts of all 3 ingredients, and whip by hand or in a mixer for 3-5 minutes and you're done.
Tortilla Wrap
Ok, listen. It's not just a regular sandwich wrap using a tortilla. That would be pretty boring. This is actually a mind-blowing, yet so simple and obvious way to start "wrapping" your wraps going forward.
Simply start cutting your tortilla as if you were going to slice it straight down the middle, but stop when you get to the center. So you just have just one slit on one side.
Place ingredients for your wrap into quartered sections of the tortilla. Grab one end, fold it over the adjacent quadrant, then the next, and then the final quadrant.
You'll end up with a beautifully layered, perfectly compact and portable sandwich.
Pancake Cereal
I mean, this looks awesome. First of all, who doesn't love pancakes? Second of all, who doesn't love cereal? I would love to eat little, bite-size mini versions of delicious fluffy pancakes. And use maple syrup as a replacement for milk.
Just use your favorite pancake better recipe, and simply drop dollop-size amounts onto your griddle.
Cloud Bread
Bread is hands down one of my favorite things to eat. Cloud bread is especially fun due to its extremely light, airy, and fluffy texture thanks to the whipped egg whites. And the great part is you can customize the flavors to whatever suits your fancy.

Smoked Cream Cheese
There's actually a few different trends on TikTok for smoked/baked cheese, including baking a block of feta cheese. I opted for the smoked cream cheese to include here because almost everyone loves cream cheese and it makes a great party appetizer!
This one is super easy although it does take some time. Luckily, you can set it and forget it. Put an 8-oz block of cream cheese on a baking tray and coat with either olive oil, herbs, or other spices. Set your oven at a low temperature of 200 degrees and let the cream cheese bake for 2-3 hours.
