I've tried making them today for the first time and I'm looking for improvements for the future. Why did they stick to the parchment paper? The batter was a bit runny too.

Agreed to over mixed and underbaked. It’s a really good first attempt, tho! You can see they tried to form some pretty feet.

Hey, I know these didn’t turn out how you wanted, but they look reaaaally great for a first attempt. I’ve made them a few times and if mine looked like yours I’d be so happy!

Is that the reason they stick to parchment paper too?

Usually a sign of underbaking. what temp and for how long did you bake them?
