Directions

Heat a greased griddle until drops of water sprinkled on it evaporate noisily.

Pour 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles begin to form on top, 2 to 3 minutes; turn and cook second side to a golden brown color, another 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat until all batter is used.

I really liked this. I don't eat sweet breakfasts so this was right up my alley. I tend to prefer waffles since they get crunchier so I am going to try this batter in my waffle maker next time. Neat idea
