For an extra cheesy flavor, consider adding a pinch of grated Parmesan cheese to the dough. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Chipas are best served fresh and warm. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature and reheat them slightly before serving. For a softer Chipa, consider adding one more tablespoon of milk to the mixture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)
02
StepLightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper. (2 minutes)
03
StepIn a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, shredded Italian cheese blend, and melted butter until well combined. (3 minutes)
04
StepGradually add the tapioca starch and self-rising flour to the wet ingredients. Stir until a cohesive dough forms. The dough will be quite sticky, which is perfectly normal. (5 minutes)
05
StepLightly flour your hands and a clean work surface. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface and gently knead for about 2 minutes. This helps to bring the dough together. (2 minutes)
06
StepRoll the dough into small, golf ball-sized pieces. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. (7 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the Chipas are golden brown and slightly puffed up. The baking time may vary depending on your oven. (15 minutes)
08
StepRemove from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. They are best enjoyed warm. (5 minutes)
