Perfect for your blinis and pancakes, the De Buyer Mineral B iron blini pan will bring you plenty of joy at breakfast, at teatime or at any time of day! In its two mini sizes, 12 cm and 14 cm, there's no pancake you won't master and flip with ease, to the delight of everyone at the table. What's more, you can make perfectly round little omelettes in them for individual servings!
More French than Coco Chanel, De Buyer Mineral B pans are ideal for making blinis and pancakes at home, the healthy way. Like all Mineral B pans, these iron pans stand out because:
-
They're handcrafted in iron. Since 1830, De Buyer has been making these pans by hand, a true emblem of the brand.
- No coatings, no chemicals and no heavy metals,
- They're treated with a layer of beeswax that protects the pan.
- They're suitable for all heat sources, including induction.
- You can also use them in the oven (maximum 200 °C for 10 minutes)
-
They're very efficient. You don't need high power to cook beautifully. Iron takes on and holds a lot of heat, even over medium heat. At medium power, heat spreads evenly across the whole pan, so food cooks evenly.
- That great heat retention makes them ideal for cooking blinis in a flash, so you can make many more in less time.
-
They're very durable. De Buyer Mineral B iron pans will last you a lifetime.
As well as for blinis and pancakes, they're the perfect size for a fried egg, for individual Spanish or country-style omelettes, or for sautéing small portions.
They're mini in size but XXL in authenticity and tradition!
Remember that we have a protective handle sleeve for De Buyer iron pans, which will help you avoid burning yourself when handling the pan.

Important things to know about Mineral B iron pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France, and they're the only ones with a certificate of iron purity above 99%. The best!
- They're iron pans, so they can rust. How do you avoid it? Avoid prolonged contact with water and don't leave them to air-dry: simply dry them with a cloth after washing. If you like, you can put them back on low heat for a few minutes so all the moisture evaporates while you finish tidying the kitchen (a very easy and really useful trick).
- If you won't be using them for a while, you can apply a little oil and spread it over the surface with kitchen paper, though it isn't essential.
- Before the first use, it's well worth seasoning them. Seasoning makes them more non-stick naturally. It's really simple to do. Watch the video among the photos to see how.
- You've got a pan for life! You can rub it with a soft sponge or scrub it with a scouring pad if you need to loosen food, and nothing will happen to it! (there's no non-stick coating to damage). They can turn black, evenly or in patches. Don't worry: the blacker they get, the better they work.
- If small spots of rust appear, wipe with kitchen paper and a little oil, and you'll see them vanish like magic. If the rusty area is bigger, use a scouring pad without fear. Nothing will happen to it; it's a pan made entirely of iron: under the layer of iron, there's more iron.
- If you've had to scrub it with a scouring pad, or simply if you feel like it, you can season it again, but there's no need to do it regularly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a fried egg fit in the 14 cm pan?
Yes, one. The 14 cm has an 11.5 cm base; the 12 cm, with a 9.5 cm base, is designed for one blini or pancake.
Does it work on induction?
Yes, but it needs a cooking zone with a diameter similar to its base; some hobs don't detect such small bases.
Does the handle get hot?
Yes, and sooner than on a large pan, because it's closer to the heat. Use a pot holder or a handle cover.
Why does the egg stick?
The non-stick patina builds up with use. Use it first for pancakes with a little butter and save the egg for when the pan has darkened.
