INGREDIENTS (roughly!)

DICE SMALL AND FRY:

  • 1 jalapeno

  • 1 shallot

MIX TOGETHER:

  • 2/3 C corn masa (cornmeal may work too… may be better!?)

  • 1/3 C GF flour blend (we use Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 Baking Flour)

  • 1 TBS sugar

  • 1 TSP baking powder

  • 1 TSP baking soda

  • 3/4 TSP salt

  • 1/2 TSP each of garlic and onion powder

  • 1 C grated cheddar cheese

  • Fried jalapeno and shallot

MAKE A WELL AND ADD:

  • 1 egg

  • 1/4 C yogurt

  • 2 TBS oil (we used olive)

  • 1/2-1 C milk or stock (Start with 1/2 C and work up. Batter should bestiff.)

Combine all ingredients until a stiff batter forms. Add more milk as the masa soaks up the liquid. Spoon onto frying pan at low/medium heat and cook through. Makes 6 cakes! Serve with butter and maple syrup.
