Tangy, creamy, a little crunchy. This snack turns heads and taste buds. Bold color, punchy flavor, and that one friend who says “Wait, what’s in these?” every single time.

EVERY RECIPE DESERVES

A Little Love Letter

They might look fancy, but these little guys are secretly the easiest crowd-pleaser ever. You know those recipes that make people pause mid-bite and go, “Wait—what is this?” Yeah, it’s one of those. The vibrant color comes from a quick beet juice bath (don’t worry, they’re not beety, just beautiful), and the filling is creamy, tangy, and somehow nostalgic and elevated at the same time. Perfect for Easter brunches or as appetizers for dinner parties.

These pop right off the plate, so serve them cold on a pretty platter with a sprinkle of herbs and a little crispy bacon on top. A dusting of everything bagel seasoning makes them feel extra fun and just a little cheeky. Ideal for Easter brunch, a spring picnic, or as that one unexpected hit at your dinner party.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. The color stays vibrant, and the texture holds up surprisingly well.

  • Yield: 12

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • small pot
  • two small bowls
  • immersion blender (or regular one)
  • piping bag & star tip (optional)
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 eggs
  • 400 milliliters beetroot juice
FILLING
  • (the yolks from the 6 eggs)
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • salt & pepper to taste
TOPPINGS
  • 2 bacon slices
  • fresh dill
  • fresh chives
  • everything but the bagel seasoning

Instructions

  1. Boil the eggs for 8 minutes. Then transfer them to a bowl of cold water and let them sit for about 5 minutes. After that, pour out the water and add the beet juice to the same bowl. While the eggs are still warm, peel them completely and let them soak in the beet juice for about 2 hours.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the bacon until super crispy. Set it aside and let it cool down.
  3. After marinating, carefully slice the eggs in half lengthwise using a sharp knife. Be sure to wipe the knife after each egg to keep the next one looking clean and neat.
  4. Gently scoop out the yolks from the 6 eggs and place them in a separate bowl. Mix with mayo, lemon juice, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Blend everything until smooth using an immersion blender. You can either fill the egg halves using a piping bag with a star tip (looks extra cute) or just use two spoons. It works either way. Pipe or spoon the filling into each egg half until all the mix is used up.
  5. For the topping, I used crispy bacon, fresh chives, fresh dill, and a generous sprinkle of Everything Bagel Seasoning. But honestly? You can top them with whatever makes your heart happy.

Imagine a table full of vibrant, delicious little bites that disappear as soon as you serve them! These foolproof blini are soft, golden mini pancakes topped with a silky ricotta cream that goes with anything. Whether you’re hosting a cozy brunch or an elegant dinner party, these creative toppings take your appetizer game to the next level. From smoky and herby to sweet and nutty, there’s a flavor for everyone. It’s all about the balance of textures, flavors, and a little drizzle of oil magic!

Prepare the blini as mini pancakes, then spread a dollop of the ricotta cream on top and add your chosen toppings. You can serve them pre-assembled for easy grabbing or turn it into a fun DIY setup where everyone can mix and match their toppings. Perfect for any vibe – casual or fancy! You can also prepare the batter and ricotta cream in advance and keep it in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The blini pancakes can also be made ahead of time since they’re typically served cold.

Store the blini and ricotta cream separately in airtight containers. Keep the blini in the fridge for up to 2 days. The ricotta cream stays fresh in the fridge for 3-4 days.

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • cooling rack
  • piping bag (optional)
  • kitchen knife
  • cutting board


Ingredients

Units Scale
BATTER
  • 90 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 egg
  • 125 milliliter buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • oil for frying
RICOTTA CREAM
  • 250 grams ricotta
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt & pepper to taste
BLINI TOPPING 1
  • walnuts
  • shallot
  • oil for frying
  • honey
  • chili oil
  • fresh thyme
  • red pepper flakes
BLINI TOPPING 2
  • fresh fig
  • gorgonzola
  • truffle oil
  • chives
  • black pepper
BLINI TOPPING 3
  • cooked salmon
  • red onion
  • capers
  • olive oil
  • fresh dill
  • black pepper
BLINI TOPPING 4
  • pastrami
  • cornichons
  • walnut oil
  • fresh parsley
BLINI TOPPING 5
  • radishes
  • cress
  • basil oil

Instructions

  1. First, we’re making the blini batter. Mix all the ingredients together until smooth, then let it chill for like 5-10 minutes. Once the batter’s had its lil rest, heat up a pan with a bit of oil or butter and spoon in small circles of batter. I usually use 3/4 of a tablespoon. Here’s the pro tip: when you see those cute little holes popping up on the surface, it’s time to flip them. Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes until they’re golden and gorgeous. Boom, your blinis are born. Pop them on a cooling rack to chill out – no soggy bottoms here.
  2. Grab a bowl and mix the ricotta cream. For this, stir together ricotta, olive oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper until it’s smooth and creamy. Then load it into a piping bag if you’re feeling fancy, or just keep a spoon handy for the easy aesthetic.
  3. Once your blinis are cool, dollop or pipe some ricotta cream onto each one. Get creative – a little swirl, a casual blob, whatever your heart desires. Now they’re ready for toppings.
  4. For Blini topping 1, toast the walnuts in a pan without adding additional fat. Take them out and let them cool. Thinly slice the shallots into delicate rings and fry them in a bit of oil until crispy. Set aside to cool. Add half a walnut onto the blini, as well as about 1 tsp of the crispy onions. Finish with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of pink peppercorns. Toss on a few fresh thyme leaves and finish with a few drops of chili oil for a spicy kick that ties it all together.
  5. For Blini topping 2, slice fresh figs into eighths. Place one fig wedge on the ricotta cream, then crumble some blue cheese on the other side – as much or as little as your vibe calls for. Add a few drops of truffle oil, sprinkle with freshly ground pepper, and garnish with a touch of chopped chives to seal the deal.
  6. For Blini topping 3, flake some cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces and nestle it onto the ricotta cream. Slice red onions into thin strips, then scatter a few pieces on top along with some capers. Add a few drops of olive oil, a grind of fresh black pepper, and finish with a couple of dill sprigs.
  7. For Blini topping 4, tear thin slices of pastrami into strips, roll them into little spirals, and press them onto the ricotta. Diagonally halve some cornichons and place one half on the blini. Drizzle a few drops of walnut oil for a rich, nutty twist. Top it all off with a sprig of fresh parsley for a classy finishing touch.
  8. For Blini topping 5, thinly slice radishes into delicate rounds and place two slices on one side of the blini. On the other side, gently press on a little bunch of radish cress for that pop of green. Finish with a few drops of basil oil for a fresh, herbaceous flair.
  9. Serve these cute appetizers on a platter and watch them disappear in seconds.
