Ingredients
1 C tapioca starch1/2 tsp baking soda1/4 tsp sea salt2 tbsp olive oil5 tbsp water or milk sub1 egg
Directions
In a saucepan, mix 1/3 C tapioca starch + 5 tbsp water/milk sub + 1 tbsp olive oil. After it is well-mixed, heat on low, stirring continuously until mixture congeals, into a pasty, thick goo. Do not over heat! Set aside and allow to cool.

In a bowl, mix 2/3 C tapioca starch, baking soda & sea salt with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 egg. Add the cooled tapioca gel and knead thoroughly.

At this point you can shape however you want. Pizza crust, buns, pretzels, whatever. I brush the tops of whatever I'm making with olive oil. Bake @ 375*F until crispy to the touch.

    I am thrilled to find this recipe! I have been searching for a pćo de queijo WITHOUT the queijo for months now. Made 3 batches yesterday. Not a one survived! HINT do not be in a rush with cooking the flour & water roux-like starter. Keep the heat low and keep whisking. It is worth every stir! - 3/26/17
