Mandioquinha Bread Recipe

Step by step to make mandioquinha bread

The art of baking can be simpler than it seems. With the right ingredients and a little patience, you can make delicious cassava bread at home. Below you'll find a step-by-step guide to making this recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 500g of mandioquinha
  • 1/2 cup of warm water
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 4 cups of wheat flour

Preparation:

Step 1: Preparing the mandioquinha

First, peel and cook the mandioquinha until it is very soft. Then mash it until you get a smooth puree. Allow to cool before continuing with the recipe.

Step 2: Activating the yeast

In a bowl, mix the warm water, sugar and dry yeast. Let the mixture rest for about 10 minutes, or until it starts to foam. This indicates that the yeast is active.

Step 3: Mixing the ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the manioc puree, egg, oil, salt and yeast mixture. Gradually start adding the wheat flour, mixing well after each addition. Keep adding and mixing until the dough starts to pull away from your hands.

Step 4: Kneading the dough

Transfer the dough to a clean, floured surface. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic. If necessary, add more flour to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands or work surface.

Step 5: Letting the dough rise

Place the dough in a large bowl, cover with a clean cloth and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Step 6: Shaping the buns

Once the dough has doubled in size, divide it into equal pieces and shape them into loaves. Place the loaves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them so they can rise.

Step 7: Baking the buns

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the buns for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let the loaves cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Okay, now you have delicious homemade manioc bread! This bread is perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack. Plus, it's a great way to introduce new flavors to your baking routine. Try it and enjoy!
