Blini [0000995]

Ingredients:

1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter (or dairy-free substitute)
1/2 cup sour cream (or dairy-free alternative)
1/4 cup smoked salmon or caviar (optional, for topping)

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, buckwheat flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until you have a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes.

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter or oil.

Pour a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) onto the hot skillet to make a thin pancake. Swirl the skillet to spread the batter evenly.

Cook the blini for about 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Once cooked, remove the blini from the skillet and let them cool slightly.

To serve, spread a dollop of sour cream on each blini and top with a small piece of smoked salmon or a spoonful of caviar if desired.
