Only second to the original pão de queijo, a staple of the Brazilian cuisine also know as Brazilian Cheese bread or cheese puffs, here is the cheese waffle, a very Americanized version to something very Brazilian! What Brazilian Fusion is all about!
CHEESE BREAD WAFFLES! As the name suggests, is maybe 2-4 pão de queijos in the form of waffles to enjoy for breakfast or to make a sandwich with at lunch!
These are great if you don’t have all the ingredients, time or resources to make a tray full of cheese puffs! And quite frankly, it is a lot easier!

Brazilian Cheese Waffles
For the typical waffle or base for creativity:
1 egg
3 tbsp of tapioca starch

2 tbsp shredded mozzarella
2 tbsp any milk
A pinch of salt (optional)
Optional:

HOW
Mix all together and pour on heated waffle iron and wait until done. End product should look like this, crispy on the outside and deliciously soft gooey goodness on the inside.
Enjoy,

What can we use if we dont have a waffle maker?
You can make it like a pancake or bake it like bread, but I’ve only tried it with a waffle maker!
Are these pretty healthy?
Not super because of cheese, but there are worse things. These are so tasty ? , you’ll love them!
