- If using a frying pan or a waffle iron, add a coating of cooking spray, vegetable oil, or olive oil. I find spray works best and easiest on the iron. You may also want to add more after making 2 pancakes/waffles..
- In a frying pan, pour/laddle out your desired amount of batter and fry until the top layer is solid and dry around the edge, then flip and fry for about 1 - 1 1/2 mins. If using a waffle iron, cover the bottom of the iron with batter and cook for 3 mins..

I have made other variations of Poor Mans Cake- this one turned out rather dry - Neither my housband or I were happy with it. If your're looking for a recipe for this cake try one of the others. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Add all at once to dry ingredients, beating only until moistened.
