1/2 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
1 tsp salt
2 tblsp garlic, minced
1 cup cheese, shredded your favorite variety
1 cup parmesan cheese grated

Options for tops of bread

pinch parmesan cheese, grated
dash garlic powder or salt


Instructions

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Set aside.
• Using your handheld or stand mixer, combine egg, milk, oil or butter, tapioca flour, garlic and salt. Blend until smooth.
• Add cheeses and quickly combine.
• Immediately, using a ladle, pour batter into your prepared mini muffin tin. Fill each until about 3/4 full.
• Sprinkle a bit of parmesan cheese on top with a sprinkle of garlic powder or garlic salt. 
• Sprinkle a pinch of dried thyme leaves or basil on top, if desired.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes before removing rolls from pan. Serve immediately.

TUPPS TIDBITS:  If you over mix the ingredients you can end up with somewhat hollow puffs. They are still just as tasty and addictive, they just don't look the same.
We made only 1/2 the recipe and it made 19 bite size puffs!
