This Brazilian cheese bread is easy to make and delicious. Crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. Did I mention it’s also gluten-free? This bread will have you coming back for more.

In my culinary school, many students were Brazilian and they would sometimes bring their food to share. My palette was awakened to appreciate Brazilian food. I especially love their Brazilian cheese bread. I do not claim it will be as good as theirs, but I had a whole lot of fun making this.

The main ingredient is tapioca flour, which isn’t flour at all. It’s the starch from the cassava root. Making this recipe completely gluten-free.

This recipe is delicious no matter who you make it for. Check it out below!

Ingredients for Brazilian Cheese Bread

• Tapioca Flour. This recipe is naturally gluten-free thanks to the tapioca starch. This is a starch from the cassava plant. It’s not safe to eat raw. But when cooked, it has a chewy consistency.
• Whole milk for the creaminess. You can also use water or plant milk.
• Olive Oil. Make sure it is high quality because it will mess with the taste.
• Cheddar cheese. The best way to incorporate this is by buying a bloc and grating it yourself. This might be extra work, but pre-shredded is actually coated in powder that prevents the cheese from melting, so it’s best to grate your own.
• Egg
