Wow, what a great idea..

the syrup will stay ON the pancake...

But if you want flatter pancakes my suggestion is add a little more flour..

You are cooking them too cool, and the edges get done first, dry out, and curl...... THAT'S MY STORY, AND I'M STICKING TO IT!

I can honestly say that I have never had that problem.

If your edges are curling, then it seems to me that the batter is quite thin.

I use a heavy batter, the consistency of thick Ranch Salad Dressing. The pan should be uniformly hot, but not smoking hot. When you place the batter into the pan you will see breaking bubbles and the edges will turn from wet to a dry pale color, this is when you know to flip the cake over.

If you like the taste of your batter, just reduce the amount of liquid you are using in the batter to achieve a thicker consistency.

If this doesn't work, try IHOP lol

Hey, thanks everyone for the suggestions! The Russian pancakes would be a good project for a rainy day. I'll write that down and add it to my collection of recipes. Strange thing ..... This problem with edges curling never happens with the premade mix, whether the heat is low or high, whether I turn the pancakes too early or wait too long ...... I experiement with the suggestions you guys offered. Thanks and God bless.

RECIPE FOR BUCKWHEAT BLINI

Ingredients

1 cup [120 g] buckwheat flour

1 cup [120 g] wheat flour

2 tablespoons [20 g] dry yeast

3 tablespoons [50 g] butter, melted

2 eggs

3 cups [720 ml] or so of milk

2 tablespoons [30 g] sugar

Pinch of salt

Preparation: Mix buckwheat flour with a cup [240 ml] of milk. Heat a second cup [240 ml] of milk, and add it to the batter, mixing well. When the batter has cooled, mix in the dry yeast. Let the batter rise until it doubles in size.

Whip the batter with a wooden spoon, adding salt and sugar. Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Add the egg yolks, warm melted butter, and the wheat flour to the batter, mixing well. Separately whip the egg whites, and add them to the batter along with additional milk as needed. Allow the batter to rise once again.

Heat a frying pan, and brush it lightly with oil or melted butter. Pour just enough blin batter to coat the pan, as thin a layer as possible. Cook over low heat until the underside of the blin is golden. Turn the blin over, and cook it for 15 seconds more. Transfer to a plate, and keep the blin warm while repeating the steps with the remaining batter. Serve the blini stacked.

That sounds good I'm going to try to make those very soon, but first I have to buy buckwheat flour, I never ever bought that before.......

Thanks for psoting the recipe
