Pancakes or Waffles

I prefer half raw pancakes.

I personally I prefer pancakes. Perhaps one of you could help me out with a problem I'm having with making pancakes. I cook one side and when it comes time to flip the pancake the batter on the top leaks out as I turn it so that I end up with one cooked pancake and one horrible mess of a pancake I then have to turn again. I've tried thickening and thining the batter, almost to the point of making crepes. As well as making smaller pancakes and tilting the pan to spread out the batter. I think I might have the heat on too high so that I turn it to prevent burning before the batter thickens. Any suggestions?

My pancakes crush all that dare stand up to them...

Medium heat. Wait for the bubbles to start breaking. After the bubbles break, "tap" a spatula underneath the pancake making sure to make your way around. When ready, HIYO!, slide spatula all the way under and flip!

Pancakes! But they have to be from scratch. They can’t be that pre-made shit. Frozen = ralph.
OK, the pre-made powder mix can be good in a pinch but they don’t compare.

i most prefer homemade waffles at my mom's house...

but i make pretty good swedish pancakes too

WAFFLES, nothing holds my maple syrup like the deep square crunchy cradles that come together to make the heavenly WAFFLE.

WAFFLES motherfuckers

Don't fuck with him!

Stupid waffle iron's been in the shop for months.

That image RULES.

If I'm eating out it's definitely pancakes. While I prefer pancakes, there still has to be that box of waffles in the freezer. Waffles with a couple scoops of ice cream melting on top? That's pretty good stuff.

Maybe the best pancakes I ever had were up in a small place called the Noonmark Cafe in the Adirondacks. They had big, fresh blueberries and real maple syrup. I'm going to start drooling on my laptop.

Waffles please..that damn bunny messed up pancakes for me long ago

Belgian Waffles! TOTALLY! with some strawberries and whipped cream on it! Best breakfast a person could ask for.

I thank you greatly for your advice, I made pancakes today and they were absolutely picture perfect without an spills.

No prob.

pancakes ftw !

Belgium waffles with 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream!

2 pancakes and 1 Belgian waffle and a ton of bacon between two slices of thick cut large French toast all smothered in syrup.

That's funny because I get the two of them in the past few hours. And so I choose ... waffles !

Just got a box of Eggo Buttermilks. Gonna drown 'em in boysenberry (which was way cooler when I was a kid, because I thought it was "poisonberry").
