Ingredients

1egg (preferably large)
1 pinchsalt
1/4 cup60 mlmilk (whole milk for creamier results)
2 cups480 mlcorn starch or tapioca flour (sifted)
1 cup240 mlgrated cheese (mozzarella and parmesan blend)
2 tablespoons30 mlmelted butter (unsalted)
1 teaspoon5 mlbaking powder

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg gently until it becomes frothy. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
  2. Slowly pour in the milk while continuing to whisk to ensure a uniform mixture.
  3. Add in the sifted corn starch or tapioca flour gradually, mixing continuously to avoid lumps. The dough will start to come together as you mix.
  4. Pour the melted butter into the mixture and incorporate it fully to keep the dough moist and easy to handle.
  5. Fold in the grated cheese of your choice, making sure it's distributed evenly throughout the dough for a cheesy taste in every bite.
  6. Finally, sprinkle the baking powder over the mixture and gently fold until fully incorporated.
  7. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Using a spoon, scoop a portion of the dough and place it onto the skillet.
  8. Cook on each side for about 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
  9. Once cooked, allow the cheese bread to cool slightly before serving, enhancing the texture and flavor.

Tips:

  • For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or a sprinkle of oregano to the dough.
  • Ensure the pan is well-heated before placing the dough to achieve a nice golden crust.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to experiment with different flavor profiles.
