Pancake griddles are perfect for making a variety of foods, but sometimes grease and burnt food can become stubbornly stuck on the griddle’s surface, even after soaking it. Aggressive scraping may remove the residue, but it could damage the griddle’s coating. Here are some gentler yet effective methods for cleaning a pancake griddle.
Step 1
Use a scrub brush and hot, soapy water to remove any loose debris from the griddle.
Step 2
Sprinkle cream of tartar on the food residue.
Step 3
Spray vinegar on the area. Allow the cream of tartar and vinegar solution to sit for no more than five minutes.
Step 4
Wipe off the food build-up with a sponge. The vinegar should make it easy to wipe off the residue immediately. Repeat Steps 2-4 if necessary.
Step 5
Submerge the griddle in hot, soapy water and wash it until it’s clean. If there’s still residue on the pancake griddle, repeat the entire process until it’s clean.
