Chef John'S Brazilian Cheese Bread (Pao De Queijo)
- 2 1/4 cups tapioca flour, or more as needed
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup mild olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ounces freshly grated mozzarella cheese
- 2 ounces finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place tapioca flour in a mixing bowl. Combine milk, olive oil, and salt in a pan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Immediately remove from heat and pour into the bowl with the tapioca. Mix until a shaggy dough starts to form. Let rest for 5 minutes.
- Add mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, eggs, and cayenne. Stir with a fork until thoroughly combined. Use an ice cream scoop to portion dough onto a silicone-lined baking sheet. Poke down any jagged bits using a wet finger if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes and serve warm.
