Gluten-Free Blinis Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
• Optional toppings: smoked salmon, cream cheese, dill, lemon wedges

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and sugar.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, eggs, and melted butter.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until well combined and the batter is smooth.
4. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each blini.
5. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
6. Flip the blinis and cook until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining batter.
7. Serve the gluten-free blinis warm topped with smoked salmon, cream cheese, dill, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice if desired.
