Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups yuca (cassava) flour
- 0.5 cup tapioca starch
- 1 cup vegan cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 servings egg replacer equivalent to 2 eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine yuca flour, tapioca starch, grated vegan cheddar cheese, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, olive oil, and prepared egg replacer until fully combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients gradually, stirring continuously until a soft dough forms.
Once the dough is well mixed, take small portions (about 2 tablespoons each) and roll them into balls using your hands. If the dough is too sticky, you can lightly flour your hands with yuca flour to prevent sticking.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one to allow for slight expansion.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Enjoy these dairy-free Pan de Yuca warm or at room temperature.
