These yummy gluten/wheat free breads are good for those with Celiac disease or gluten intolerance. These are good either served plain, or with marinara sauce. For more variety, try adding a variety of herb seasonings, such as Italian seasoning or try substituting other cheeses for the Parmesan.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup olive oil or butter
⅓ cup water
⅓ cup milk or soy milk
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups tapioca flour
2 teaspoons minced garlic
⅔ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 beaten eggs

Steps:

  • 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.

I'm not a big fan of cheese bread, but this recipe changed my mind. The bread was light and fluffy, and the cheese was perfectly melted.

I love the combination of cheese and tapioca flour in this recipe. The bread is soft and chewy, and the cheese is gooey and flavorful.

Not bad, but not the best I've had. The texture was a bit dry for my taste.

Very good, but I had to make a few adjustments. I used almond flour instead of tapioca flour and it turned out great!

A tasty twist on traditional Brazilian cheese bread. The result was fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I highly recommend!
