Buckwheat Pancakes
Ingredients
  • 2 cups warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
  • 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup buckwheat flour
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
1
Begin by placing warm milk into a spacious container, then gently sprinkle yeast onto the milk's surface. Allow this mixture to relax and become soft for 5 minutes, during which time the yeast will start to activate. Next, incorporate sugar and buckwheat flour into the milk mixture using a spoon or whisk; cover the container, and permit it to rise and expand for 1 hour.

Subsequently, combine eggs, sour cream, heavy cream, salt, and flour into the mixture until a smooth batter forms. Cover the container once more, and let it continue to rise and expand for 2 hours.

Following this, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray the skillet with cooking spray to prevent sticking; then, carefully pour small amounts of batter into the skillet to create 1 1/2-inch blinis. Cook for approximately 2 minutes, during which time the blinis will start to set and dry, and the bubbles will begin to burst. Flip over the blinis, and continue cooking until they are browned on the other side, taking around 1 minute.
