“Good recipe, just had it with coffee. You are one of the few people on the Internet that know it's not so French as the name suggests. The first recorded recipe was Roman but it was around before the Roman Empire too, many centuries before France existed” — a cook, 5.0★

“This looks great! Just a suggestion – you can use maple syrup in the batter instead of honey. I started doing that so it was easier for little ones to eat as finger food (no sticky syrup on top since it’s cooked in). My grandson still says it’s the best Frenc” — a cook, 5.0★
