Sausages and bacon are always popular with pancakes at any time of year. Pancakes and griddle cakes are baked on a griddle or heavy cast iron frying pan. Do not grease the pan too heavily. The griddle should be hot enough so that a drop of water will bounce around on it. If the water disappears at once, the griddle is too hot.
