What you'll need

five ingredients.

  • 2/3 cup whole milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2/3 cup neutral oil
  • 1 bōm dough Pão de Queijo Mix bag
  • 2/3 cup grated low-moisture mozzarella

three steps.

The method

01

blend.

Add the whole milk, eggs, neutral oil, and the Pão de Queijo Mix to a blender. Blend until smooth, then add the grated cheese and blend briefly, just until incorporated.

02

portion.

Pour about 50g of batter into each cup of a greased 12-cup muffin pan.

03

bake.

Bake at 350°F until puffed and golden, rotating the pan once halfway through — about 30 to 35 minutes, depending on your oven.

A freshly baked pão de queijo held in a napkin, with the rest of the batch still in the muffin pan behind it — the result of the bōm dough Pão de Queijo Mix recipe.

The result

warm, fluffy, golden.

Evenly shaped, fluffy pão de queijo — made in your own kitchen — with a soft interior and a light, crisp shell. The traditional outcome, without the fragile process. Best enjoyed fresh; store leftovers in an airtight container and warm them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to bring back the softness.
