10. *note*: I ask Chef Kate if she used Pam for her griddle method. Here is her reply:.
11. Just dry-using the smooth plates of an electric waffle iron with removable plates-I got it good and hot and then cooked them, letting them cook on one side and then turning only once - No sticking and really delicious and a lot less calories and fat. .
