9. Heat a non-stick griddle over medium high heat and then spray on Baker's joy. You may want to slightly lower heat to just over medium heat so you do not burn your pancakes.
10. Scoop out a 1/4 cup of batter onto your griddle for each pancake.
11. Pancakes are ready to flip when edges start to look dry and the middle is slightly bubbly. Cook on opposite till slightly tanned.
12. Serve with margarine and confectioners sugar, or pancake syrup. Another yummy substitute is Lemon Curd.

I haven't made this yet, but I am wondering if you can tell me what rose water is and where I could find it? We have just begun a GFCF diet for my autistic daughter and adhd son and I am desperate for recipes! I love 'zaar and love cooking for my family, but since our dietary change, it seems like a daunting task, so I was excited to see your recipe. Thank you!
