- Beat in the remaining milk.
- Put a little oil into a large frying pan, roll it around to cover the surface and heat until the pan is nice and hot.
- Drop teaspoons of batter onto the pan to make small blinis.
- When bubbles appear on the surface of the blinis and the base is golden, turn them over and cook the other side. Transfer cooked blinis to a cooling rack.

Incredibly easy, work every time and freeze really well! We now keep a constant supply in the freezer for easy entertaining. I usually pop them straight from the freezer into a warm oven for a few mins. Also nice instead of GF toast with a salmon & egg brunch.

Very easy to make and taste good. However, I didn't manage to make them into neat circles, despite being a very experienced at making pankakes. Each tiny pancake was unique shape. I'll freeze them for Christmas!

I had tried several blini recipes, but this was the best. So easy to make, froze really well and they were light and delicious. I will be making these again and again...

Lovely and light. I had tried making buckwheat pancakes before with a different brand flour and they did not taste good. I was then put off buckwheat thinking that was how it tasted. I decided to try again with Doves Farm buckwheat as I have had success with other recipes using the spelt flour. A completely different experience with buckwheat this time. I used tablespoons of the mixture as the teaspoon-sized blinis were very tiny. Delicious and easy. Thank you!

There is no gluten in buckwheat - it's a totally different family of plant, and is not even a grain.

since the gluten free buckwheat flour contains gluten is it possible to do these with the gluten free plain or self rasing flour ?

These work really well both as 'canape' style and larger breakfast style blinis - a real boon for the gluten intolerant. If you use a hand held mixer, and mix the eggs and batter well - you can even miss out the baking powder (I forgot to add it this morning!).
