cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil provides healthy fats and is a good substitute.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a blender, combine the eggs, oil, milk, water, salt, and half of the tapioca starch.

Blend for 2 minutes.

Add the remaining tapioca starch and baking powder to the blender.

Blend for another minute.

Scrape the sides of the blender and blend for five more minutes to ensure everything is well mixed.

Add the grated Parmesan cheese and pulse a few times to combine.

Pour the mixture into a 12-cup Bundt pan that has been buttered and lightly floured.

Sprinkle some mozzarella cheese on top.

Bake the Pão de Queijo until just starting to become golden brown, about 45 to 50 minutes.

Let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before serving.
