- ⅓ cup buckwheat flour
- ¼ cup plain flour or almond meal
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- ⅔ cup buttermilk
- 1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
For the Herbed Feta Dip

- 1 tsp chopped dill
- Good pinch fresh thyme leaves
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- Pinch sea salt flakes
To serve

Method
Sift flours and baking powder into a bowl. Whisk together the egg and buttermilk until smooth, then gradually add it to the flour mixture, whisking. Stir in butter or coconut oil. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium to high heat. Using 2 teaspoons mixture per blini, spoon 6 neat circles of mixture into the pan and cook for 2 minutes each side or until browned. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat to make 24 blinis.
To make the dip, mash feta with a fork until smooth, add yoghurt, herbs, garlic powder and salt, mix well.
