Equipment
Ingredients
For the Smoked Salmon Pate
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 tablespoon capers rinsed, drained, and chopped
- 1/4 red onion finely diced
- 1/2 lemon juiced
- pink salt
- 6 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon
- Fresh dill for garnish
- cracked black pepper
For the Blini
- 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon Wholesome Yum Superfine Almond Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
- 1 pinch pink salt
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
- olive oil
Instructions
For the Smoked Salmon Pate
- In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and cream cheese with a hand mixer. Stir in the capers, onion, dill, and lemon juice. Taste and add salt as needed.
- Chop 2 ounces of the smoked salmon and fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- Cover and place in the fridge.
- Reserve the rest of the smoked salmon for serving.
For the Blinis
- Separate the egg whites and yolks. Place the egg yolks, melted butter, and almond milk in a mixing bowl. Gently whisk until combined.
- Fold in the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites using a hand mixer until light and fluffy.
- Carefully fold the egg whites into the batter just until combined. Don’t overbeat as this will cause the blinis to flatten.
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat using just enough olive oil to coat the bottom. Spoon a heaping teaspoon full of batter per blini into the pan and cook for about a minute or until golden. Flip and repeat on the other side.
- Repeat until all the batter is used up (you should be able to make approx 16 blinis).
- Place cooked blinis on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Top each blini with a smear of the smoked salmon pate, a curl of the remaining smoked salmon, garnish with a bit of fresh cracked black pepper, and some fresh dill.
