We use the frozen pancakes and put them on a plate stacked as they
come out of the package and we cook them on high for about 50

Pancakes are my favorite breakfast. I can stir up the batter, but my
problem is timing them, and turning them. Any suggestions? Now I just
substitute frozen waffles, life is always a compromise. right?
