Cheese Bread Waffles aka “Waffles Pão de Queijo”

This one is for us Brazilians (and anyone else) who Loves and misses our typical Cheese bread, a staple Food in Brazil that has globalize in such a way that most people who have come in contact or have been to a Brazilian restaurant know about it! It is also know as Brazilian Cheese Puffs or Cheese balls, but to us, it’s just our simple pão de queijo!

The issue is we, the people not living in Brazil or around other Brazilians can’t always find the ingredients to make it so we need to get creative! I love waffles, I love Pao De Queijo, so here are some Americanized cheese bread waffles to satisfy the crave!
These waffles are to be enjoyed 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! What you do:
