Cheesy GF Dinner Rolls

Here's a recipe for one of our favorite GF dinner rolls. I was given this recipe from a lady at our local Brazilian market. She referred to then as Pan De Yuka. She uses yuka flour but told me it's the same thing as tapioca flour which I can easily find in most of our markets. They're best served hot right out of the oven.

Cheesy GF Dinner Rolls
2 1/2 cups tapioca flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
4 cups shredded cheese, I use mozzarella cheese or a combo of 3 cups mozzarella, 1 cup cheddar or Colby.
1 stick butter, room temp
2 eggs

1. Preheat oven to 500 degrease.

2. In the bowl of a food processor add flour, baking powder, salt, and cheese. Pulse until cheese is cut into the flour mixture.

3. Add butter to the flour/cheese mixture and pulse until mixture forms a fine crumbly texture.

4. Add the eggs and pulse until the dough just comes together and starts to pull away from the edge of the bowl.

5. Form dough into small balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.

6. Bake at 500 for 6-7 minutes.

7. Set the oven to a high broil and bake another 2-3 minutes until the rolls have a slight golden color.

Serve warm and enjoy! Please note these rolls freeze really well . Just form the dough into balls and freeze. Let thaw slightly then bake following steps 6 & 7.

I've been experimenting with different flavor combinations so far one of our favorites is to use cheddar cheese and add 1-2 tablespoons dill weed (use the lesser amount of dill if using fresh).
