Air Fryer Pao de Queijo

Recipesfull introduces to you: Quick Bread Recipes. (Air Fryer Pao de Queijo). Two types of naturally gluten-free manioc starch (not tapioca) mixed with cheeses are a traditional recipe for Brazilian cheese rolls, but these are made in an air fryer instead of the oven. This cuts down baking time, and still gives you soft, chewy rolls. It is important to use both types of starches for the right flavor. They can be found in most Latin or South American grocery stores or even online.

Step 2

Mix sweet manioc and sour manioc starches together in a bowl until fully combined.

Step 3

Combine milk water olive oil and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add starches. Stir until liquid is absorbed; the mixture will be very dry. Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool just until safe to handle.
