- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier cakes.
- Cook the cakes over medium heat. Medium heat will help the cakes cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the cakes warm with your favorite toppings. Butter, syrup, and fruit are all classic choices.
