Instructions

  1. Whisk all dry ingredients in a bowl.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, buttermilk, and melted butter.

  3. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, whisking until just smooth. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.

  4. Heat a lightly oiled heavy skillet over medium-high heat.

  5. Pour batter into the hot pan: use 1 tablespoon for appetizer-sized blini or 2 tablespoons for breakfast-sized blini.

  6. Cook until holes appear on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining batter.

  7. Serve cooled blini topped with a dollop of sour cream and a small scoop of caviar.
