I have made several different pao de quejo recipies for my husband who is from Brazil. This one did not work at all. Bread did not rise in oven, even though did let it sit for 15 minutes as per recipe.

I’m sorry, I’m not sure why it is so liquidy. Did you let it rest? I will look into this recipe!

Something is off on this recipe. The batter is way too liquid and they spread like pancakes and don’t stay in balls. They taste good though.

Hello! This is made at high altitude so you can follow the current recipe!

I Alyssa. Do you know how I would adjust the recipe for high altitude?

This recipe is way off by almost a full cup of starch. The ratio of liquids/ solids must be adjusted.
Also, traditional Brazilian cheese bread doesn’t take cheddar cheese.

This recipe doesn’t make a dough. It makes a batter and the result is like pancakes

Brazilian cheese bread is supposed to taste more like mochi! You got the texture right.

Attempted to make this recipe. After pouring the liquid ingredients into the flour, it didn’t become smooth, it was all crumbly so I figured to add more boiled milk. Mixed in the eggs and cheese, it was really sticky, can’t roll into a ball, I used a greased ice cream scooper instead. After it baked and cooled down, tried it and the texture was like a mochi instead of bread. Not sure what I did wrong.
