pancakes...? Can you use this machine for pancakes or french toast?

I think this is a great question to ask because I was very disappointed to see that there is no flat surface. Please check out my video on Youtube which I took on May 3, 2010. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFk6fLI07MI We couldn't cook fried eggs but it works great for pancake. I bought it for cooking pancake!

We use the Scanpan Square Griddle for this. I do not think the 9-1/2" pan would be good for cooking four pancakes unless you are going to make them very small. If you are thinking that a fry pan would be best because it would be multi-purpose, then I would go with one of the larger fry pans for making pancakes. Good luck!

No.But just as an update I will tell you I still love my toaster!It is used for toast every day and eggs & toast a few times a week. I have eliminated frivolous kitchen gadgetry and although this may be a novelty, it is very very useful.

I sometimes make waffles with pancake mix but you need to add extra oil for waffles. But if you use the waffle iron you have waffles not pancakes.

Hi Jean, I have used both in this waffle maker. Sometimes the pancake mix will give you directions if you are going to use a pancake mix for waffles (usually less liquid), and I have also made my own waffle mix from scratch. Hope this helps.

Yes! We used it for french toast and it worked great! Smells like real eggs. Pretty neat product. I would suggest it!

Yes, you can. I have a recipe for pancakes where you put the wheat kernels in the blender with the other ingredients and grind until smooth. The Blendtec is the strongest best blender I have ever owned. I even ground dried white beans for a recipe that called for bean flour.

Pancakes, yes. Eggs, yes but you need the heat hot enough that the whites form up immediately. Bacon, I wouldn't recommend this vs using a wire rack when using the grill. You'll have a greasy mess with bacon on this mat.

Hi Jim. You can make the pancakes any size you like by changing how long you hold the valve open. If you're asking if the item itself comes in different sizes, I'm not sure.

Not a good idea - the pancakes and eggs would cook unevenly because they are different thicknesses. Plus you will spend a lot of time and effort getting the egg or pancake out of the grooves.The best use for the griddle is for meats and firm vegetables [such as eggplant slices] where you want grill-marks -

Absolutely! I have used it for sprinkling powdered sugar over French Toast.

I've never tried it, but I don't see why not. It's non-stick. The high sides might make it a little difficult to turn the pancakes versus a flat griddle.

It has a sandwich maker plate that you could use. Or you could use the waffle plate. The bread just won't look like "normal" French toast.

We make our batter from scratch, no mix. With our batter you can make both waffles and pancakes.

You can use pancake mix but not too thick. Add sweetener and do not over mix the batter.

It says you can do pancakes, but I haven't tried it. I made an omelet once and it was good. The waffles are great! I love it!! It is a great appliance and very versatile.

It works great for pancakes, waffles, grilled cheese, etc. I think you could use it for panini's if you did like a grilled cheese by grilling one side at a time.
