A:Answer Just used the griddle pan for the first time. Does not in anyway appear to be nonstick. A true nonstick pan doesn’t require the use of cooking sprays, grease, or oils. My pancakes were an absolute fail sticking like crazy. I have decided to season the griddle,(IMO it needs it, however it’s just that, an opinion,) I guess I’ll see the results the next time I use the pan.
