Making the bread
- Set oven to 400.
- There are two ways to cook these. First, you can grease a mini-muffin tin. Second, you can form it into balls and bake it on a cookie sheet. I went with the cookie sheet method, though the ball shaping was less successful.
- Pour the milk and water into a saucepan and place over high heat. Bring to a boil, without burning, and immediately remove from the heat.
- Stir in the tapioca flour, it should be chunky and very sticky.
- Rest for 10 minutes or until cool (the mixture needs to be cool to retain its shape).
- Stir in the cheese and egg, until combined. Form or drop the mixture in 1/4 sized balls onto a baking sheet (ungreased, but I used a baking mat).
- Bake 14-18 minutes until the tops are lightly browned.
- Serve warm!
