Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups tapioca flour
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese, usually parmesan but it’s changeable
  • 1 teaspoon of salt (or more to taste)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Spread a little olive oil around the insides of each well of a mini-muffin tin.
  • Put all of the ingredients into a blender and pulse until smooth. You may need to use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender so that everything gets blended well. At this point you can store the batter in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Pour batter into prepared mini-muffin tin, not quite to the top; leave about 1/8 inch from the top.
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until all puffy and just lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool on a rack for a few minutes.
