Method

11 steps · 1h 9m

01
Whisk Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup buckwheat flour, 2/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon yeast.
02
Add Milk
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the 1 cup warm milk, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
03
First Rise
Cover the bowl and let the batter rise in a warm spot until it has doubled in size, which should take about 1 hour.
04
Enrich Batter
Stir the 2 tablespoons melted butter and 1 egg yolk into the risen batter.
05
Whisk Egg White
In a separate, clean bowl, whisk the 1 egg white until it holds stiff peaks, but isn't dry or crumbly.
06
Fold Egg White
Gently fold the whisked egg white into the batter until just combined; you want to keep as much air as possible.
07
Second Rest
Cover the bowl again and let the batter stand for another 20 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax and the yeast to do a final bit of work.
08
Heat Skillet
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the pan.
09
Cook Blini
Drop quarter-sized dollops of batter into the hot pan, leaving some space between each one so they don't stick. Cook for about 1 minute, or until you see small bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set.
10
Flip and Finish
Flip the blini and cook for about 30 additional seconds on the second side, until they're golden brown.
11
Keep Warm and Repeat
Transfer the cooked blini to a plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm while you finish the batch.
Add a bit more butter to the pan if needed, then repeat the frying process with the remaining batter until it's all used up.
