- Press down on pancake with spatula and fry for another 2 minutes.
- Flip once more, press down again, and cook for 30 seconds to crisp. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate and keep warm in low oven.
- Repeat with remaining batter and oil to make second pancake. Cut into bite-sized pieces and serve hot.
