1. 01

   Sift Dry Ingredients

   In a large bowl, sift the flour and baking powder together.
2. 02

   Mix Batter

   Add the milk, sugar, and 2 tablespoons cream to the dry ingredients. Stir to combine.

   Beat the egg until it's frothy, then gently fold it into the batter until just incorporated.

3. 03

   Rest Batter, Cook Blini

   Let the batter stand for 20 minutes.

   While the batter rests, melt butter on a griddle or large skillet over very hot heat. Once the butter is shimmering, drop spoonfuls of batter to form small pancakes, about 2–3 inches wide. Cook until golden brown on both sides.

   Serve Blini

   Drain the cooked blini on paper towels to absorb any excess butter. Serve them warm, topped with a dollop of cream and a spoonful of caviar.
