Ingredients:

• 1 large egg, room temperature
• 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing the pan
• 2/3 cup milk
• 1 1/2 cups (170 g) tapioca flour
• 1/2 cup (66 g) packed grated or crumbled cheese, your preference
• 1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or pie dish with olive oil.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, olive oil, and milk until well combined.
3. Add the tapioca flour, cheese, and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir until a sticky dough forms. The dough will be quite thick and elastic.
4. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Use your hands or a spatula to spread it out evenly, pressing it into the edges of the pan.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread is cooked through. You can test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your gluten-free pão de queijo!
