Brazilian cheese bread (Pão de Queijo)






Brazilian cheese bread (Pão de Queijo) sort of like a chewy cheese puff made with tapioca flour. I had this at the Brazilian restaurant on Monday and it was so yummy. Hehe so happy to find this recipe and i can have this bread everyday now on :D My son said this cheese bread is very chewy, a lot like Japanese mochi.  第一次的成品还不赖! :)


Recipe adapted from Cheese Bread



INGREDIENTS
1 egg
1/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup milk
1 1/2 cups (170 grams) tapioca flour
1/2 cup (packed, about 66 grams) grated cheese, your preference
1 teaspoon of salt (or more to taste)
Special equipment recommended:
One or two mini muffin tins. Mini muffin tins are about half the size of a regular muffin pan. The muffin openings are about 1-inch deep, and 1 3/4 inch wide at the top.

METHOD
1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a mini-muffin tin. Put all of the ingredients into a blender and pulse until smooth. You may need to use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender so that everything gets blended well. At this point you can store the batter in the refrigerator for up to a week.
2 Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until all puffy and just lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool on a rack for a few minutes.

Eat while warm or save to reheat later.
