Popular Brazilian Cheese Bread Rolls Recipe
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Pour olive oil, water, milk, and salt into a large saucepan, and place over high heat. When the mixture comes to a boil, remove from heat immediately, and stir in tapioca flour and garlic until smooth. Set aside to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir the cheese and egg into the tapioca mixture until well combined, the mixture will be chunky like cottage cheese. Drop rounded, 1/4 cup-sized balls of the mixture onto an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven until the tops are lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the tapioca flour with another type of flour?
No, tapioca flour is essential for the texture of Brazilian cheese bread rolls. Substituting it with another flour may result in a different consistency and taste.
How should I store leftover cheese bread rolls?
You can store leftover cheese bread rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven to restore their texture.
What can I do if my dough is too runny?
If your dough is too runny, it may be because of too much liquid. You can add a little more tapioca flour to thicken it. Add gradually until the mixture holds its shape better for forming balls.
