Pancake pan

A pancake pan makes the difference between a flat, mangled creation and a golden disc you flip in one motion. The shallow shape with low rim lets you easily get under the batter and spread it evenly across a smooth non-stick base. Ideal for pancakes, crepes, omelets, blinis and anything that's cooked thin.

What is a pancake pan and what do you use it for?

You'll recognize a pancake pan by the low, sloped rim and broad flat surface. As a result:

• You spread batter easily with a spatula or by tilting the pan.
• You get under the pancake easily to flip.
• You get golden, even results without thick edges.
• You cook pancakes, crepes, omelets, blinis or dosa.
• The pan goes on the table: serve straight from the pan for brunch or dessert.

Pancake pan for induction

Our pancake pans are induction-ready thanks to the reinforced, magnetic base. No warping, no hot spots, a flat pan that bakes perfectly every time.

Pancake pan without PFAS

Our pancake pans feature a safe ceramic non-stick coating (GreenShield) or are made of pure stainless steel. No PFAS, no PTFE, no PFOA. Healthy cooking without hidden chemicals.

Which pancake pan size suits you?

• 25 cm: ideal for crepes and small pancakes.
• 28 cm: the standard size for classic pancakes.
• 30 cm or larger: for XL pancakes or several smaller ones at once.

Tips for the perfect pancake

• Preheat the pan well (3-4 minutes on medium-high).
• Thin layer of butter or oil, not too much.
• Wait for small bubbles before flipping.
• A thin spatula works better than a thick one.
• Serve immediately or keep warm under a clean tea towel.

Caring for your pancake pan

• Don't use metal spatulas on the ceramic coating.
• Let the pan cool before washing.
• A soft sponge and mild soap are usually enough.
• No abrasives or steel wool.
• Store the pan with a cloth between pans.
