Mix the cassava starch, masarepa, and baking powder in a large bowl.
Crumble the white cheese, grate the kasar cheese, and add them to the dry mixture.
Add the egg, melted butter, and milk, and knead into a soft dough that holds together.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces and roll them into smooth balls in your palms.
Arrange the balls on a parchment-lined tray, leaving space for them to rise.
Bake the cheese breads at 195°C for 20-22 minutes, until puffed and lightly browned.
After removing from the oven, wait 5 minutes and serve while the cheese center is still hot.
💡 Tip: If the white cheese is very salty, soak it in water for 10 minutes and drain; pan de bono should taste cheesy but not overly salty.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve pan de bono hot for breakfast with filter coffee or hot chocolate instead of Turkish coffee, if preferred.
