Brazilian Cheese Bread

A great chewy complement to soups and stews. 
Another wheat-free recipe here on my gluten-full blog. What's it coming to? Fortunately, these buns are full of cheese so it's only a semi-compromise.

This recipe, consisting mainly of tapioca flour and grated cheese, turns out perfectly if you "do exactly what they say", as the detectives sternly advise in all the hostage scenarios on TV. No sudden moves of your own creative mind, no adlibbing. Once, I forgot the egg and ended up with something akin to stretchy drywall paste. A tearful evening in the annals of experimentation.


All you need to get this bowl full of buns is a blender, a few ingredients, a muffin tin, a bit of an attention span - and bingo! Golden chewy delights perfect to have with soups and stews.

Oh, yeah. These were great. So different; so addictive, I'm afraid.

Be very afraid. One dozen only makes six per person in your house....
