can you make crepes or pancakes on it or will they stick?

I have had complete success with pancakes but have not tried to make crepes. Good luck.

I've made pancakes on ours which I brushed with vegetable oil before ladling the batter onto it.

We make pancakes often and they never stick. It is a pleasure to make them on the griddle because I can prepare half the batch I need for my family at once (it fits about 6 at a time). I do recommend turning on your stove and really allowing it to heat up for a few minutes (I just put both burners to medium heat) before putting down your batter ...or the first batch of pancakes won't cook evenly. Once it is up to temperature it really maintains the even heat well. I have never tried crepes on the griddle. I will admit I do wash the griddle sometimes (with Method dish soap) after eggs (which do crust on a bit) and when I put it back on my stove for storage I will spray a bit of Pam on it and then wipe it with a paper towel.

I haven't used the griddle side yet. But I've had no problem with my meat, shrimp or bread sticking on the grill side. I just use a little olive oil spray before I put meat or bread on. I'm sure it would be perfect for pancakes or crepes. Hope this helps.

definitley pancakes... crepes may get tricky because it isn't non-stick but it all depends on your skills and how much grease you use.

You can but probably wouldn't rise the way you want because it is non-stick. Angel food needs to "climb" as it bakes to stay light.

If you know how to cook with S.S. yes it is always remember HOT pan cold cooking fat (butter pam bacon grease...ect.) I have cooked eggs and pancakes on this and no problem at all with sticking

This saute pan is so versatile. You can use it for pancakes too but maybe an overkill. Pancakes can be cooked in almost anything. This pan need more oil than usual to prevent sticking and when you're done, there's always a bit of scraping to do. But easy to scrape. Frankly, for pancakes I wont use this. Normal frying pan or griddle will do.

Sure, you can use this to make pancakes. The cooking surface will be smaller on this pan vs. a frying pan but if that doesn't matter to you it will be fine. I think you will have to use a decent amount of butter to avoid sticking.

Yes! I have used it to make pancakes. It seems to have hot spots though, as my pancakes didn't cook evenly. I may have been doing something wrong though, or maybe it's my stove; in any case they were delicious.

Yes the plates are nonstick for there surface BUT you will need to use a oil or a spray before you put batter. Using a oil or spray before will solve the sticking . I have had another waffle maker that was nonstick surface and I also needed to use oil/Pam before pouring batter.

Pancakes, yes. Eggs, yes but you need the heat hot enough that the whites form up immediately. Bacon, I wouldn't recommend this vs using a wire rack when using the grill. You'll have a greasy mess with bacon on this mat.

Yes, you could make pancakes. You may want to consider a nonstick pan for pancakes, however.

If you meant whether it needs to be covered for the pancakes to cook, the answer is no. The pancakes can cook on one side, flipped with a bamboo skewer or something and cooked on the second side.

It will stick because people tend to make it too hot. The pan holds heat very well. A good olive oil is needed.

I have never done this before, but if I did, I think I would lay a small piece of plastic wrap between the pie and the pan. Since the bottom of each space has a removable bottom, I believe it would be easy lifting and no sticking. Plus, you could probably use the plastic again and again. I hope this helps.

I believe that you could make square cupcakes. Don't think pan is too shallow. I would definitely try it.

I haven't tried pancakes on it, but it is great for French toast. Just be sure to use a little oil on it & heat the pan before cooking!

I would recommend used a spoon or spatula for just dry ingredients. This is great for dry and liquid put together. Pancake mix, dough, cake mix, etc.

I use this pan for crepes. It really doesn't need to be seasoned. For crepes, you need a slight amount of oil (sprayed or brushed) and I have had no problem with sticking.

You risk scratching the nonstick material if you use metal. Just use any flat plastic utensil to loosen the pancake and it will work.
