Ingredients

  • ½ medium red onion, cut into ⅛-inch thick slices
  • ¼ cup pickled jalapeño pepper slices
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 ½ cups white masa harina
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup 2% milk
  • ½ cup full fat Greek yogurt

Directions

1) Line a Suvie pan with aluminum foil. Add ½ cup red onion slices and ¼ cup pickled jalapeños to the pan and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place pan in Suvie and broil 15 minutes until golden brown. 

2) In a large bowl, mix together 1 ½ cups white masa harina, 1 cup all purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp kosher salt, ¼ tsp garlic powder, ¼ tsp smoked paprika, and 2 tbsp brown sugar. Add 2 eggs, 1 cup milk, ½ cup Greek yogurt, and 2 tbsp olive oil. Mix until just combined with no lumps. 

3) Remove pan from Suvie. Arrange onions and jalapeños so that they are evenly distributed in the pan. Dollop spoonfuls of batter into the pan on top of the onions and jalapeños. Use a spatula to smooth the top of the batter, making sure to fill the corners. Load pan into the bottom zone of your Suvie, input settings, and cook now.
