Ingredients

5 cup Tapioca Starch, start with 4 cups and add up to 5 cups to adjust texture
2 Eggs
2 cup Whole Milk
1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
2 tbsp Fine Salt, use 1 tbsp if you prefer it less salty
2 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1 cup Parmesan Cheese, 4 oz

Method

6 steps. Tap one to mark it done.

Set your oven to preheat to 325°F (163°C).
Combine 4 cups of the tapioca starch with the fine salt in a spacious bowl. Slowly pour in the whole milk, vegetable oil, and eggs, stirring the mixture until completely combined.
Incorporate additional tapioca starch up to 5 cups total to achieve the desired dough texture; a smaller amount of starch creates a softer, sticky interior, whereas a larger amount results in a drier texture similar to standard bread.
Gently stir the shredded mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese into the mixture until they are evenly distributed throughout.
Roll the dough into uniform small rounds and arrange them across a baking sheet.
Cook in the oven for about 30 minutes, removing them once they turn a pale golden brown color.
