About Bolo de queijo

Bolo de Queijo, a savory cheese bread, is a beloved Brazilian treat rooted in South American cuisine. Typically made from tapioca flour, eggs, milk, oil, and cheese—often parmesan or mozzarella—this gluten-free delicacy boasts a light, airy texture with a rich, cheesy flavor. Originating from the state of Minas Gerais, it shares similarities with Brazil's popular pão de queijo but is baked as a cake instead of small rolls. While Bolo de Queijo is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities, its nutritional profile includes high levels of fat and calories due to the cheese and oil content. Rich in protein from the cheese and eggs, it provides some satiety; however, moderation is important for a balanced diet. This traditional comfort food is best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence, pairing well with coffee or as part of a celebratory brunch.
