Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¾ cup milk

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter



Recipe:

  1. Gather all ingredients.

  2. Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.

  3. Whisk 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk, egg, and 1 tablespoon melted butter together in a separate bowl. Mix into the flour mixture until the batter is fully combined.

  4. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cooking several blini at a time, drop batter, one tablespoon per blini at a time, onto the heated skillet.

  5. Cook until bubbles form, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until brown, about 1 minute more. Move to a paper towel-lined plate to help soak up excess butter.

  6. Repeat with the remaining batter. When the pan gets too dry, add some extra butter.
