Servings: 20 knots
- 1 egg room temperature
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups (170 g) tapioca flour or tapioca starch
- 1/4 cup (50 g) cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup (50 g) mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Generously grease a mini muffin tin. Place all the ingredients into a blender and pulse until smooth. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is well blended. This will yield about 2 cups of batter.
Transfer the batter into the mini muffin tins, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, until puffed and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool on a rack for a few minutes. Enjoy while warm, or save for reheating later.
You can buy tapioca flour or tapioca starch at Asian food stores such as 99 Ranch Market. It's also available at Whole Foods, or online, according to Simply Recipes.
