Ideal cooking temp varies with the kind of batter you like. For
ours, which tends to be slightly thin buttermilk, I put the skillet at
350°F and leave it there. Works fine. A thicker batter probably
would do better at a slightly lower temp in order to cook the center
while not over-browning the outside. -aem
