📝 Instructions

8 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, butter, and salt. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to melt the butter.

3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the tapioca flour, stirring vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly sticky.

4

Let the dough cool for a few minutes, then add the eggs one at a time, stirring well after each addition. The batter should be smooth and shiny.

5

Fold in the shredded cheese until evenly distributed in the dough.

6

Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, place mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You should have approximately 12 mounds.

7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are puffed up and golden brown.

8

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free cheese buns warm!
