Ingredients
- 2 cups tapioca flour (Bob's Red Mill Tapioca Flour) This recipe calls for Tapioca Starch and that is not negotiable. Bob's Red Mill brand of tapioca flour is the same thing as tapioca starch.

- ½ cup melted butter or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 cup shredded cheese your favorite variety
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Pour oil, milk, and salt into a large saucepan, and over medium high heat. As soon as your mixture starts to boil, remove from heat immediately, and add tapioca flour. Stir until blended.
- Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Add eggs, minced garlic, parmesan and shredded cheese.
- Using your handheld or stand mixer, blend until smooth. Dough will be sticky.
- Using 2 spoons, in a coffee mug full of water, scoop dough into every cup on your mini muffin pan.
- Sprinkle garlic powder or garlic salt on top of each puff. I always use garlic salt.
- Sprinkle a pinch of dried thyme leaves or basil on top, if desired.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes before removing rolls from pan. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Mix gently: Be careful not to overwork the dough for these Brazilian cheese popovers, as too much mixing can make them turn out hollow.
- Batter consistency: Aim for a scoopable pancake batter consistency rather than something too runny.
- Filling the pan: Avoid filling the mini muffin tin sections all the way to the top. Add just enough batter to reach about ¾ of the way up so the popovers have room to rise and puff beautifully.
- Reheat leftovers: In the oven or toaster oven until warmed up.
