Golden. Gluten free. Greatness. Yup! I’m talking about our cheesy bread rolls that will have you coming back for seconds and thirds. Tip: Pair it with a cheese ball’s sidekick, a crudité, to compliment and balance your meal.

Gluten Free Cheese Bites

Recipe: Gluten Free Cheese Bites


Servings per recipe: 12
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes

  • 1 egg (or Flax egg for a vegan option)
  • 1 C tapioca flour (tapioca starch is the same)
  • 1/2 C potato starch (different from potato flour)
  • 1 tsp sea salt finely ground
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 C mozzarella cheese (Vegan cheese is an option)
  • 2/3 C milk
  • 1/3 C oil (walnut, grapeseed or olive)

Directions

Flax egg: In a small bowl mix together golden flaxseed meal and 3 tablespoons filtered water. Set aside.

In food processor or blender place tapioca flour, potato starch, salt and baking powder. Pulse a couple times to blend. Add cheese and pulse a couple more times until broken into very small pieces. Stir in egg and add along with oil and milk to dry ingredients. Blend well until smooth (about 30 seconds). Pour or spoon batter into a greased mini muffin tin about one eighth from the top (It is important to bake these in a mini muffin tin as the cooking time would vary from a standard size). TIP: If any muffin receptacles remain empty, place one teaspoon of water in each empty muffin receptacle.

Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 18 to 20 minutes depending on oven. Should be firm on the outside but puffy and very lightly browned. (The shell of the bread will be very firm when first removed from oven but softens to a crisp after cooling for a minute or two, see picture in post.) Remove from oven and cool on rack for a couple of minutes and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container. These rolls will reheat nicely.
