🇧🇷 Brazil recipe
Pão de Queijo
These irresistible cheese bread rolls from Minas Gerais are a cornerstone of Brazilian cuisine. Made with tapioca flour (polvilho) instead of wheat, they emerge from the oven with a thin crispy shell that gives way to an incredibly chewy, stretchy, cheese-laden interior. Naturally gluten-free and utterly addictive.
