• Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden on top. Serve warm.

PAN DE YUCA (YUCA BREAD)

Steps:

• Add 1 cup yuca flour plus the baking powder to the food processor bowl. Pulse a few times.
• Add the eggs and crumbled cheese and process until the dough forms a ball. If the dough is too wet, sprinkle in a little more flour a tablespoon at a time; if it is too dry, add a teaspoon or two of milk.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide into four equal pieces. Lightly shape the first piece with your hands and then cut into four pieces. Roll each small piece into a small rope and then shape into a crescent. Place the crescents on the prepared pan. Continue with the remaining dough. You will have 16 crescents on the pan.
• Cover with a flour sack towel and allow to rest in a warm place for 30 minutes.
• While the dough is resting, preheat the oven to 375 F.
• Bake the rolls on the top rack for about 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve warm.

PAN DE YUCA (COLOMBIAN CHEESE BREAD)

Steps:

• Using your hands, combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
• Knead until very thick and firm, about 5 minutes.
• Turn out onto a dry surface and divide into 4 pieces.
• Shape each piece into a ball and flatten slightly.
• Divide each disc into six pieces.
• Roll each piece between palms to form a 4 inch long cylinder.
• Repeat with remaining discs.
• Rolls can be covered and refrigerated at this point up to 2 weeks.
• Preheat oven to 550ºF and arrange rolls on baking sheets. (The recipe doesn't say if they are to be greased or not so maybe I'll use parchment paper just in case.).
• Bake until brown and crisp about 6-8 minutes. Serve warm.
