Pao De Queijo aka Brazillian Cheese Puffs



Pao De Quijo aka Brazillian cheese puffs are made of tapioca flour as a main ingredient. This babies are chewy in the inside and soft on the outside. Chewy and cheesy Brazilian puffs are simple and easy to make with our day to day ingredients that are easily available at home. Another good news is tapioca flour are absolutely gluten free. The puffs tend to fall a bit in the middle but no worries since this puffs requires thin batter, that's absolutely normal.

I made this delicious puffs with mild cheddar cheese. You can use cheddar or parmesan for this recipe and the outcome is unbelievably fantastic. Serve Pao De Queijo hot or warm to enjoy the chewiness. The chewiness created by the usage of tapioca flour is something special in this cute puffs.
