Almond Flour Pumpkin Bread
A few years ago, in a pinch, I bought a package of Against the Grain original rolls. They were so expensive (nearly $9 for 4 rolls!) that it was really really (really) hard to pull the trigger. But my family loved them. So I did the only thing that seemed reasonable to me. I made my own copycat version asap.
This is not a bread recipe, though, like any other. It's made of just tapioca starch/flour, eggs, milk, cheese, and oil. These rolls are chewy and cheesy, and almost remind me of popovers in texture but with a delightfully crisp and almost flaky crust.
I'd argue that these Against the Grain copycats are better than the original. They're really fast to put together, have a beautiful cheesy flavor and a delightfully chewy texture. And, of course, they're affordable!

I originally wrote about these rolls in 2013. Along the way, I've made these gluten free rolls so many timesthat I've modified the method a bit, both to simplify the process and to handle the issues that sometimes come up.
I never post a recipe unless I make it successfully and can repeat my own success multiple times. But over the years, I have seen some issues pop up that I didn't anticipate years ago.
The quality of your ingredients, especially the tapioca starch/flour, can greatly affect the outcome of your rolls. Make sure to use a high-quality tapioca starch for the best results.
Yeast Free Gluten Free Vegan Bread
You do need a food processor to make this recipe.I've tried making it in a blender, and I'm afraid I've failed. If you only have one of the mini prep food processors, don't despair! Just split the entire recipe in half and make it in two parts.
If you have issues with your food processor stalling during preparation, it is likely that the tapioca flour has clumped at the bottom of the bowl and the blade has become stuck. Opening the top and stirring the dough to loosen it will get it working again. Do make sure you add the tapioca flour after you add the cheese, eggs and oil.
Right after preparation, the dough will be very sticky. Wrapping the dough in plastic wrap and chilling it will allow you to divide it into portions.
Cassava Flour Bread
When I first made this recipe, I cooked part of it on the stovetop before processing everything together. Over time, I realized that step wasn't necessary—and that the recipe worked better when the ingredients began at room temperature, or even chilled.Processing the dough in the food processor with add heat, which is part of why we will have to chill it before shaping no matter what the temperature of your ingredients at the start.
The amount of milk that it makes sense to add to this dough is perhaps the most important variable in the recipe. Depending upon how much moisture is in your ingredients, the quality of your tapioca starch, and even your food processor, you may need more or less milk.
You will always need less than 1 full cup (8 fluid ounces) of milk. You may even find that you prefer to make the recipe with a bit less than 5 fluid ounces (which is itself less than 2/3 cup).

If you want the dough to be very easy to handle, use a bit less than 5 fluid ounces of milk the first time you make the recipe. The dough will be much easier to handle, especially after chilling, but watch the baking time like a hawk. They will likely be fully baked in less than 20 minutes.
If the raw dough in the food processor falls too easily off a spatula, you've probably added too much liquid. Try adding more tapioca starch/flour and processing until smooth.
If you've gone too far in adding liquid, even after adding a bit more flour, rather than truly shaping the dough you may have to scoop it onto the baking sheets with an ice cream scoop and baking it for a bit longer.
Brazilian Cheese Bread
You're not kneading the dough in the traditional sense, anyway. You're just coaxing it into a roll shape. The oven does the rest.
After the initial 20 minutes of baking, quickly open the oven and slice a small hole in the top of each roll to let steam escape. This helps to prevent the rolls from becoming too moist inside, which could cause them to collapse as they cool and make slicing difficult.
Keep a close eye on the baking time. If you've used less milk, the rolls might be fully baked in less than 20 minutes. If the dough was more liquid, you might need to bake it for a bit longer.

Like other simple recipes, each ingredient is crucial to the success of this recipe. It does not take substitutions well. Here are the details:
If you can't have regular cheese, I'm afraid you simply cannot make this cheese bread recipe. I have tried making it with homemade Miyoko's Kitchen recipe cheese, and it failed. I have tried making with all different brands of dairy-free packaged shredded cheese, and it failed.But you can still choose another gluten free bread recipe that suits your needs.
I had developed a recipe for a copycat of the dairy-free Against The Grain rollsand posted it on the blog years ago. The post disappeared somehow in a redesign years ago, and I have no other record of it. It's gone for good.
Paleo Bread Recipe (made Using Only 5 Ingredients)
This recipe works best with pre-grated low moisture mozzarella cheese. It contains anti-caking ingredients, often starch, that prevent thedough from becoming too sticky and not holding its shape during shaping and baking.
I know it's less than ideal to use an ingredient with additives, but there are certainly more additives in the packaged rolls. I do not stress such things, but it's a personal decision.
There are two eggs in this recipe, and they do a lot of heavy-lifting. In fact, they're responsible for the entire rise. I don't think you could make this recipe with an egg replacement at all.
Easy Brazilian Cheese Bread Recipe (pão De Queijo)
For tapioca bread, you have to use tapioca flour. And, in general, if a recipe calls for tapioca starch or cassava flour, then you really can't substitute it with anything else equally and get the same results. Superfine sweet white rice flour is the starchiest, stretchiest rice flour, but it won't create the same results as tapioca.
Tapioca starch is the key ingredient has no true equal in the world of gluten free flours, so there is nothing else that will replace it with certain success.I've seen people suggest trying potato starch, corn starch, and brown rice flour, but those just won't work.
The quality of the one you use matters a whole lot. I can only recommend purchasing it from nuts.com, Authentic Foods, and Vitacost.com. Bob's Red Mill tapioca starch/flour is of inconsistent quality and I recommend against it.

The tapioca starch/flour sold in bulk in Asian food stores is also very inconsistent and frequently contaminated with other ingredients, sometimes gluten-containing ones. I also recommend against using that.
While the original recipe for these Against the Grain-style gluten free rolls is delicious on its own, there are several ways you can customize this tapioca bread recipe to suit your personal tastes:
The rolls can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days in an airtight container. For longer storage, slice them in half, wrap them tightly, and freeze. They can be defrosted at room temperature for 30 minutes before toasting and serving, or defrosted in the microwave and served warm. Be sure not to overcook them in the microwave or they'll become stiff and hard.
Paleo Sandwich Bread (high Protein, Grain Free, Fast)
A food processor is necessary for this recipe to ensure that all the ingredients are thoroughly combined. If you only have a mini prep food processor, you can split the recipe in half and make it in two parts.
If the dough is too sticky, try adding more tapioca starch/flour and processing until smooth. If you've added too much liquid, you may have to scoop the dough onto the baking sheets with an ice cream scoop and bake it for a bit longer. The dough also may not hold its shape properly during baking if it's too wet, so it's better to add more tapioca starch until it holds its shaped when scooped.
These rolls are versatile and can be served with a variety of dishes. They can be used as a side for soups and salads, or used to make sandwiches.
