Ingredients
1 cup All purpose flour
1 cup Milk
½ cup Butter, melted
¼ teaspoon Salt
4 ounces Smoked salmon
1 ounce Caviar
½ cup Crème fraiche
Butter for greasing
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt, whisking together to combine evenly.
Add the milk and melted butter to the flour mixture, stirring until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
Heat a griddle or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly butter the surface.
Drop small spoonfuls of batter (about 1 tablespoon each) onto the heated griddle, spacing them apart to form small pancakes about 2-3 inches across.
Cook each blini for 1-2 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the edges look set.
Carefully flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side until lightly golden.
Transfer cooked blini to a serving platter and keep warm while finishing remaining batter.
Top each warm blini with a small spoonful of crème fraiche.
Add a small piece of smoked salmon to each blini.
Finish by placing a few grains of caviar on top of each blini and serve immediately.
