Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan

Directions

  4. Fold in 1/3 cup cherries
  5. Place 1/4-cup batter onto non-stick skillet and cook till bubbles start appearing through the top of the pancake and then flip. NOTE: Cook on medium heat and I flattened out my batter with the spatula to cook more evenly.
