Instructions

    In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the tapioca flour and salt. In a pot, bring the milk and oil to a simmer. Pour the hot liquid over the tapioca flour and let sit, unmixed, until cool enough to touch, about 20 minutes.

    In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Crumble the cheese into the eggs and stir to combine.

    With the mixer on low speed, mix the milk and oil into the tapioca flour. Add half of the egg and cheese and mix until incorporated, stopping the mixer occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the remaining egg and cheese and continue to mix until the dough is well blended with the exception of some small lumps of tapioca flour, about 5 minutes.

    Fold in the plums and mix until evenly distributed. Refrigerate dough for at least one hour or up to 7 days.

    Preheat the oven to 375F [200C]. Generously butter a 12-well muffin tin.

    Using an oiled 58 g [2-oz] scoop, portion the dough into the muffin tin and brush with egg wash.

    Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. If the tops don’t brown, turn the oven to broil and broil for 1 minute. When the rolls are still hot, pop them out of the tins and onto a cooling rack. Serve warm.
