I made these today and I don’t know what I did wrong but they completely melted in the oven!! I went through the directions a few times and I can’t figure out what went wrong. Was I supposed to freeze them first??? Any ideas!!

In reply to Joe Gonzalez. It should be 1 cup of milk, ½ cup of vegetable oil. Mine were always sticky and not at all dry? I use about a tsp of salt.

I followed the recipe to a T and the dough did not look like the pictures above at all – It was dry. It seemed like i was missing an ingredient like water or something – Also – specify the amount of ingredients and type of ingredients – Amount of salt? – type of oil?
I can follow a recipe and this was not a good one for sure.

In reply to Hedi.

I use olive oil every time to make these – they are awesome!!!!! Oil on the hands to roll them is a must!!! Have also used coconut oil but we find that we don’t want the coconut taste in them – but it also works!

In reply to Brittney. It definitely is gummy- really, really gummy!!! Just hot is ok (it doesn't have to be actively boiling)

In reply to kidworldcitizen.

it says to boil… so it sounds like it should be hot! although, I make a pizza crust with boiling oil and water before adding to the tapioca flour because it causes the gumming affect. However, I don’t think you are trying for the full on gumming affect of tapioca in this recipe… right? or maybe you are… This is an old post, but still curious if this ends up being answered!

In reply to Hedi. Oh no!!!!! We used corn oil. It definitely is gummy (because of the tapioca flour) but it shouldn't be so sticky that you can't roll? I talked to my Brazilian friend and she said even if it's very sticky, can you just drop spoonfuls onto parchment paper? She thinks it wasn't ruined, and that you could still make them? It might have been the humidity?

Hey, these look awesome! The mixture of milk and oil you put into the flour, is it hot? Or is it cold? Or just warm? 🙂 Thanks! 🙂

In reply to Leigh. My friend says that if they are extra large eggs, use 4, but if they are small use 5:). She also said that you can use tapioca starch!:)
