Cooking on a griddle is a great way to infuse your food with flavour and, often, reduce cooking time too. Not just for cooking your bacon at breakfast or your steak for dinner, griddles are a remarkably convenient piece of cookware that no household should be without!
The best griddle pans money can buy are made from durable cast-iron and may even come pre-seasoned for your convenience. I particularly like the ones you can see here: https://unocasa.com/products/cast-iron-griddle as they feature a reversible design which can be used as either a flat grill pan or a standard griddle
These cake mix pancakes are among my favourite griddled recipes. They’re so light and fluffy and, best of all, they’re incredibly quick and easy to make. Once you’ve rustled up your pancakes, customise them with toppings of your choice. from fresh berries and bananas, to melted chocolate, maple syrup or honey… the possibilities are almost endless!
