1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup tapioca flour (sometimes labeled tapioca starch)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 C grated cheddar cheese (preferably medium or sharp)
1/4 C grated Parmesan cheese
Optional:  extra cheese to sprinkle on top and any herbs/flavorings you’d like to add.  Try rosemary and or garlic powder.

1.Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a mini-muffin tin with non-stick spray.
2. Place egg, milk, oil, tapioca flour, and salt in blender and blend until smooth.  Add cheeses and pulse 2 times. 
3. Immediately pour batter into a mini muffin tin, filling each well about 3/4 full, or just slightly less.  If desired, sprinkle a bit of parmesan cheese on top and/or a tiny sprinkle of kosher salt.
4. Bake for 15-20 minutes until puffed and golden.  Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes before removing rolls from pan.  Serve warm.
