Pão de Queijo
Pão de Queijo is a popular Brazilian snack made from cheese and tapioca flour. These small, round cheese breads are known for their chewy texture and cheesy flavor. They are often enjoyed as a breakfast item or snack and can be found in bakeries and restaurants throughout Brazil.
The main ingredients include tapioca flour, cheese (commonly Parmesan or Minas cheese), eggs, and milk. Pão de Queijo is naturally gluten-free due to the use of tapioca flour, making it a favorite among those with gluten sensitivities.
