Air Fryer Pão de Queijo
This Brazilian cheese bread recipe is made in an air fryer instead of an oven. The two types of naturally gluten-free manioc starch (not tapioca) mixed with cheese are a traditional recipe for Brazilian cheese rolls. The air fryer cuts down baking time and still gives you soft, chewy rolls. It is important to use both types of starches for the right flavor. They can be found in most Latin or South American grocery stores or even online.
