Brazilian Cheese Bread (Pão de Queijo)​

Ingredients:​

• 1 cup (240ml) milk
• ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups (240g) tapioca flour (also known as manioc flour or cassava flour)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup (100g) grated cheese (traditional choices include queijo minas, parmesan, or mozzarella)

Instructions:​

1. Preheat the oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
2. Heat the liquid ingredients:
   • In a saucepan, combine the milk, vegetable oil, and salt. Heat over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Remove from heat.
3. Mix in tapioca flour:
   • Add the tapioca flour to the hot milk mixture. Stir until well combined. The mixture will be thick and sticky.
4. Incorporate eggs and cheese:
   • Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until smooth.
   • Stir in the grated cheese until evenly distributed.
5. Fill the muffin tin:
   • Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
6. Bake:
   • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and puffed.
7. Cool and serve:
   • Let them cool slightly before removing from the tin. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips:​

• For added flavor, you can mix in herbs like oregano or garlic powder.
• These cheese breads are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days or frozen for longer storage.

Enjoy your delicious Pão de Queijo!
