Amazing Cheese Puff Bread (Pão de queijo)
Makes 12 cheese rolls
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
- 1 egg at room temperature
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1 cup milk
- 200g/7ozs tapioca or cassava flour
- 1.5 cups grated cheese (your favourite cheese although I'd use less if you were using blue cheese)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon chilli flakes (optional)
- Non stick oil spray
Buyer's tip: Tapioca flour is found at Asian grocery stores.
Step 1 - Grease a muffin tin with the spray and preheat oven to 200C/392F. Blend all ingredients except non stick spray in a food processor or blender.
Step 2 - Place in a jug and pour into the greased cavities filling 3/4 of the way up the sides. Bake for 20 minutes. Eat on the same day as baking - they're wonderful out of the oven and even a couple of hours after being baked too.
