Amazing Cheesy Bread You Can Make in a Blender

If you grew up in a Brazilian household, then you’re probably familiar with quick, easy and delicious cheesy rolls called Pão de Queijo. If you didn’t grow up with these, then you’re in for a huge treat. These dinner rolls only take about 15-20 minutes to make and they’re so delicious. Best of all, to prepare the “dough,” you only need the help of a blender. Get ready for Pão de Queijo to rock your world.

Here are the ingredients that FlavCity used to make these yummy dinner treats:

-1 egg
-1 cup of whole milk
-1/2 cup veggie oil
-5 oz. of grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese
-1/4 tsp baking powder
-1 tsp kosher salt
-1 1/2 cups tapioca flour/starch

From Pamela Clare in the comments:

Pre-heat oven to 385 degrees. Add the first 4 ingredients to a blender, and mix on high for 5-10 seconds. With the blender off, add the baking powder and salt. Turn the blender on medium, add the tapioca flour one large spoonful at a time. Once all the flour is added and the mixture has blended together, turn off blender. Add batter to a mini muffin tin, and fill almost all the way to the top. You can use a spoon that has been greased with oil to fill the muffin tin with batter if you want.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

*Cook’s note: The traditional Brazilian recipe calls for sour tapioca flour, if you can’t find it, normal tapioca flour works fine. Tapioca flour is the same as tapioca starch.
