- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with butter.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cassava flour, crumbled queso fresco, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together until well mixed.
Step 3
Add the softened butter and egg to the dry mixture. Mix with your hands or a stand mixer until the dough begins to form clumps.

Gradually pour in the milk while continuing to mix until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be pliable and not too sticky.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each ball.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the breads are puffed and golden on top.
