Easy recipe for light and savoury cheese waffles for breakfast. Inspired by Brazilian Cheese Puffs (Pão de Queijo), made with either tapioca or rice flour. Gluten free with a slight crispy texture.
Mix together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl then gradually add the eggs, melted butter and milk. If by hand mix with a hand whisk until you have a lovely smooth batter. Otherwise mix together all the ingredients in a food processor.
Ladle the batter into a hot waffle iron and follow manufacturer's instructions. Cook for 5 minutes although you may need to cook them for a minute less or more, depending on your waffle maker.
Continue ladling the batter in batches until you have finished.
Notes
Serve with a sprig of rosemary and honey – ideally a strong mountain honey goes perfectly. Also delicious topped with a poached or fried egg. Don’t have a waffle iron? Then serve them as pancakes!Measures: Please note that all my recipes are best made using digital kitchen scales in precise metric grams. Both ounces (and cups) are given as a guide.
