Hello Diane, a pikelet is different to a regular pancake in several ways.  It's also known as a Scottish pancake, and they are much smaller.  They are around three to four inches in diameter, and are thicker and heavier than standard pancakes.

An induction hob is a hob the transmits heat directly onto the base of a pan, which makes it less likely that you'll burn yourself.  Thus, if I had an induction hob skillet, I could use it to do light frying much more safely.  I use a talking induction hob from Cobolt systems, I don't know if those ones are available in the US.  Hope that helps.

Hello Andrew, I don't have an electric frying pan.  I have been wondering 
whether to get an induction hob friendly skillet, would that work?

Hello all, I've recently been thinking about making Pikelets, also
known as Scotch Pancakes.  These require using a griddle to make
them. Is there a safer alternative to using a griddle that reduces
the possibility of burning yourself?  Would an induction hob friendly
griddle pan be better?  Thank you.
