Blini

Ingredients

• •1 cup all-purpose flour
• •1 cup whole milk
• •2 eggs, separated
• •1 tablespoon sugar
• •1/2 teaspoon salt
• •1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• •2 tablespoons melted butter
• •for frying vegetable oil

Directions

1. 1Whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl.
2. 2In another bowl, mix milk, egg yolks, and melted butter until combined.
3. 3Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
4. 4In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into batter.
5. 5Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
6. 6Drop small spoonfuls of batter (about 2 inches wide) onto the skillet and fry 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.
7. 7Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and serve warm with sour cream, jam, or desired toppings.

💡 Fold the beaten egg whites into blini batter at the last moment. Their trapped air gives the small pancakes a lighter centre without extra leavening.
