Instructions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
Next, add in 1 cup of milk along with 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Stir the mixture until it becomes smooth, ensuring there are no lumps. Gradually pour in 1 cup of boiling water while stirring constantly.
Finally, incorporate 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil into the batter and mix until fully combined. The batter should be slightly runny, which is perfect for making thin blini.
Step 2
Once you have made the blini, if you have some leftover blini scraps, roll them up and place them vertically in a small but high baking dish.
In a separate bowl, prepare the cream mixture by mixing together 3 eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 150 milliliters of milk, a pinch of salt, vanilla (to taste), 120 grams of all-purpose flour, and 50 grams of melted butter. Blend well until smooth.
Pour this cream mixture over the assembled blini in the baking dish, ensuring they are well coated.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit). Once the oven reaches the desired temperature, place the baking dish inside.
Bake the blini for about 20-25 minutes, but keep an eye on them as baking times can vary depending on the oven. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
Step 4
Once baked, remove the blini from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. For serving, top with an assortment of fresh berries and sprinkle with almond flakes for added crunch.
To enhance the taste further, dust with powdered sugar. If you desire, adding a scoop of ice cream on top would make this dish even more delightful!
Servings
Serve these delightful pancake roll-ups with a drizzle of maple syrup or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for that perfect finishing touch. Pair with fresh fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or even banana slices for a sweet, vibrant garnish! 🌟 You could also add a scoop of your favorite ice cream to elevate the dessert experience—imagine digging into a warm pancake roll, melting ice cream, and juicy berries! 🍦🎉
Another fantastic serving suggestion is to lay them out on a picnic blanket alongside an assortment of toppings. Picture whipped cream, honey, and assorted nuts as a spread! Enjoy the aesthetic as you savor each bite, enjoying the company of friends and family. Making breakfast a special occasion will never be easier or tastier! 🚀
Equipment
A sturdy mixing bowl is essential for combining your ingredients. Look for one that’s large enough to allow for easy whisking without spills.



A good whisk helps you achieve light and fluffy batter. An electric mixer is also great if you want to save time and effort!



Use a flexible spatula for flipping the pancakes and ensuring they are perfectly golden on each side.



Choose a medium-sized baking dish that’s deep enough to hold your rolled pancakes—this helps in achieving that beautiful bake.



Your oven temperature can vary, so keep an eye on your pancakes to get that golden perfection without overcooking!



Variations
Looking for gluten-free or vegan options? You're in luck! 🌾 For a gluten-free version, substitute regular flour with a high-quality gluten-free flour blend. You won’t sacrifice any flavor, I promise! Just follow the same measurements and enjoy your fluffy pancakes without worry. ❤️
If you’re aiming for a vegan treat, whisk together plant-based milk and replace eggs with a mixture of ground flaxseeds and water (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal blended with 2.5 tablespoons of water equals one egg). Also, swap melted butter for a neutral oil or vegan butter. It’s simple and delicious! 🌱
