MEASURE THE BATTER / WATCH THE SURFACE

COOKING NOTES

A better rhythm at the stove.

Adjust the pan as you cook
If the underside darkens before bubbles form and the edge sets, reduce the heat. Keep the pan greased as needed between batches.
Turn without pressing
Slide a broad spatula under the pancake and flip it gently. Pressing the cooked surface squeezes the crumb instead of helping the center cook.
Choose your extras
The recipe allows chocolate chips, nuts, fruit, or berries in the batter before cooking. Syrup and other toppings are serving choices; they are not included in the ingredient quantities.

Two tablespoons for the whole bowl.

Use two tablespoons of cannabutter or infused oil for the batch. Strength depends on that infusion, not the spoon measure alone. Use your actual portions in the THC estimator. Refrigerate leftover pancakes in a labeled, closed container or freeze them between pieces of baking paper.

Label these as cannabis edibles. Keep locked away from children and pets. Effects can take up to two hours to be felt; avoid taking more while waiting.
