griddles

Pancake cooking surfaces

Griddles are flat cooking surfaces, typically metal plates heated from below, used for frying pancakes, eggs, bacon, and similar foods.

A griddle differs from a pan in having no raised sides, allowing easy flipping.

The verb griddle means to cook on such a surface: She griddled the tortillas until they blistered.
