Abstract: A griddle for making crepes having a base portion which includes a circular outer rim and a circular inner rim with a circular channel therebetween. The inner rim forms a wall which rises to join with the outer edge portion of the central circular cooking plate, and the outer surface of the wall joins with the outer edge of the top of the cooking plate at about a 90.degree. angle to form a sharp edge. The plane of the top of the cooking plate is above the plane of the top edge of the outer rim so as to permit a spatula to be inserted under the crepe with its blade parallel with the top of the plate, and to permit trimming of the edges of the crepe with the end of the spatula. A downwardly extending rim is provided on which the griddle may rest, and an opening is provided in the outer rim through which crumbs may be passed from the channel out of the griddle.
