Smoked Salmon Blinis
These easy smoked salmon blinis are small homemade pancakes cooked in a dry nonstick skillet without yeast or oil. Serve them with crème fraîche, smoked salmon, fish roe, dill, and chives.
Ingredients
For the blinis
- 120 g all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 240 ml milk
For serving
- 100 g smoked salmon
- 100 g crème fraîche
- 50 g fish roe
- Fresh dill
- Fresh chives
Instructions
- Add 120 g all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder to a mixing bowl. Whisk until evenly combined.
- Add 1 egg and 240 ml milk. Whisk until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into a squeeze bottle.
- Heat a dry nonstick skillet. Pipe small rounds of batter into the skillet without adding oil or butter. When bubbles appear on the surface, flip the blinis and cook for 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Assemble the 22 blinis using 100 g crème fraîche, 100 g smoked salmon, 50 g fish roe, Fresh dill, and Fresh chives. Combine the toppings in different arrangements and serve.
Notes
Dry skillet: Do not add oil or butter; a nonstick surface allows the small blinis to cook and release cleanly.
Smooth batter: Whisk out any lumps before filling the squeeze bottle so the batter flows through the nozzle.
Flip cue: Wait until bubbles appear on the surface before turning each blini, then cook the second side for 1 minute.
Topping combinations: Distribute the crème fraîche, smoked salmon, fish roe, dill, and chives in different arrangements across the platter.
