Granulated Tapioca Brazilian Cheese Bread: Easy and Fast Recipe
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the granulated tapioca in a bowl.
- Heat the milk in the microwave for 1 minute on high power.
- Pour the milk over the granulated tapioca and stir until it is completely absorbed. Be careful not to overheat the milk, as this can make mixing difficult and cause lumps.
- Add the eggs, oil, and salt, mixing well by hand until a uniform dough is formed.
- Incorporate the grated or shredded parmesan cheese, stirring until well distributed throughout the dough.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) for about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Shape the dough into balls of similar size to ensure even baking.
- Arrange the cheese breads on a baking sheet, keeping a distance of at least two fingers between them. No need to grease the pan.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- The cheese bread made with granulated tapioca has a different texture than the traditional one, being fluffier and softer.
- If desired, the cheese breads can be frozen and baked later in an air fryer at 340°F (170°C) for approximately 15 minutes.

Note
1 - I do not grease the baking sheet; the cheese breads release easily after baking. If some are slightly stuck, just use a spatula. If you prefer to grease it, apply only a very thin layer of oil.
2 - Temperature and baking time may vary depending on your oven.
3 - To make it easier, wash your hands to remove any excess dough before rolling the balls; this prevents the dough from sticking to your palms.
4 - Do not overheat the milk, as besides making the mixing difficult, it can form lumps in the dough.
