I made this pancake in a cast iron skillet and it turned out perfectly. The pancake was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

I didn't have any pears, so I used apples instead. It turned out great!

This pancake was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll add more milk next time.

This pancake was so easy to make and it turned out so well! I used fresh pears from my backyard and they were perfect. The pancake was light and airy, and the pears were soft and juicy. I will definitely be making this again.
