Brazilian Cheese Buns

I want to introduce you to the recipe for Brazilian cheese buns (pão de queijo) that won me over. The buns have an attractive golden crust and a spicy cheese flavor and aroma.

Servings: 16

Cook: 35 minutes

Ingredients

• Corn starch – 250 g
• Hard cheese (Russian) – 250 g
• Vegetable oil – 150 ml + for greasing the baking sheet
• Milk – 300 ml
• Eggs – 2 pcs.
• Salt – 1.5 teaspoon
• Flour – for sprinkling on a baking sheet

Directions

1. We will prepare the necessary ingredients for making buns.
   We turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees.

   

2. In a wide container, bring the milk mixed with vegetable oil and salt to a boil.
3. Add starch and mix quickly.
4. Turn off the fire.
   Drive eggs into the slightly cooled dough and mix again. Then add the cheese, grated on a fine grater. Knead an elastic buttery dough.
5. Grease a baking tray with vegetable oil and sprinkle with flour. We form small balls from the dough and put them on a baking sheet at a distance from each other.

   

6. We send the cheese buns to the preheated oven and bake at 180 degrees for about 25 minutes, until golden brown.

   

7. I recommend serving these cheese buns for breakfast with a cup of coffee!

Bon Appetit!
