Jaideye's griddle cakes came out quite a bit thicker than mine. I added an extra 2 tablespoons of water because the batter seemed too thick to be pourable. I recommend keeping the batter thick. If you do you'll probably only get 6 pancakes, but they'll be sturdier for making sandwiches. Mine may be too thin to pick up and eat. I used regular flax meal in mine and Jaideyes used golden flax. Hers looked like regular pancakes and mine look a bit more like whole wheat or buckwheat pancakes.
