Equipment

  • mini-muffin tray

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1⅓ cup milk
  • 3 cups tapioca flour
  • 1 cup grated cheese
  • 2 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Spray some oil into or grease your mini-muffin tin
  • Thoroughly mix all of the ingredients in a bowl - use an electric whisk
  • Pour the mix into the mini-muffin tin, leaving about 2-3mm space for expansion
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until just golden brown. Don't overdo it - less (pale) is better than them being too crispy - they're supposed to be soft.
  • Cool on a rack or throw them into a serving basket. Best eaten straight away (just try not to !)
