Ingredients
1 8.5-ounce box corn muffin mix
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg, beaten
Olive oil, for shallow frying (about cup)
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
18 seedless green grapes, halved
Honey, for drizzling
Directions
- Whisk the muffin mix, milk and egg together until smooth.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 inch of oil to the pan and heat until shimmering. Working in batches, drop teaspoons of batter into the oil to make small pancakes, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Cook until bubbles appear on the tops and the bottoms are golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and finish cooking, about 1 more minute.
- Top each blini with ricotta and a grape half. Drizzle with honey and serve warm.
