What You Do:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small saucepan over high heat, add 6 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt, and potatoes. Cook until tender. Drain and mash potatoes.
3. In a small bowl, add tapioca flour, nutritional yeast, remaining salt, baking powder, and oregano and whisk well.
4. In a large bowl, add cheese, remaining 1/3 cup water, and oil. Add mashed potatoes, mix together, and let cool. Combine wet and dry ingredients to make a soft, smooth dough.
5. Roll dough in 1-1⁄4-inch balls and transfer to prepared baking sheet. Bake rolls for 30 to 35 minutes until puffed up and lightly golden. Serve hot.
Chef's Tip: You can keep the dough in the fridge for 2 days or freeze dough balls before baking for up to 3 months.
