Directions

  1. Dissolve white sugar and yeast in warmed milk. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.

  2. Pierce yam in several places in a fork. Cook in the microwave until soft, about 7 minutes. Mash with a fork on a small plate.

  3. Whisk egg and vanilla extract together in a small bowl.

  4. Sift whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Add milk mixture, mashed yam, and egg mixture, stir until batter is the consistency of sour cream.

  5. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, grease with cooking spray. Drop 1/4 cup batter onto the skillet, cook until edges are dry, 30 to 40 seconds. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, about 30 seconds more. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet between batches.

  6. Combine 1/2 cup milk, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, ginger, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until smooth and thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour over blinis.

Recipe Yield

8 blinis

Recipe Note

These blinis represent my Russian heritage. They were inspired by buckwheat blinis which are so traditional in Russian cuisine. These blinis are a great alternative to pancakes. They are thinner than pancakes but just as fluffy!
