Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 2 cups Tapioca flour
  • 1 cup Whole milk
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 units Large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder(optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a mini-muffin tin or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, vegetable oil, butter, and salt over medium heat, bringing it to a gentle boil.

  3. 3

    Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the tapioca flour until a sticky, gelatinous dough forms.

  4. 4

    Transfer the dough to a stand mixer or a large bowl and let it cool for 5 minutes until it is warm but not hot to the touch.

  5. 5

    Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next, until the dough is smooth.

  6. 6

    Fold in the grated Parmesan cheese and garlic powder until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

  7. 7

    Using a small scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.

  8. 8

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the puffs are golden brown and have doubled slightly in size; serve warm.
