Brazilian Cheese Pastry, or Pão de Queijo, is a delightful gluten-free snack from Brazil. Made with tapioca flour and a blend of cheese, typically Minas cheese, these bite-sized treats are known for their crispy exterior and gooey, cheesy center. Rich in flavor and just the right amount of chewy, they’re a popular snack at parties or a perfect accompaniment to coffee. While they’re indulgent with their cheesy goodness, they also offer a unique source of energy from the tapioca flour. Treat yourself to a warm, fresh Pão de Queijo and experience a taste of Brazilian culture!
