Cake will always be number one).
Pancakes have been around since 26th century BC when they were invented by somebody named "Kitchir" which means “to mix” in Turkish but no one really knows what he sounded exactly...they just know that he made a bunch of noise while making them.
Pancakes are one of the oldest and most popular breakfast foods around the world. They are traditionally made from wheat flour, milk, eggs, and baking powder and cooked on a griddle or frying pan.
There are many different varieties of pancakes, including: thin and crepe-like French pancakes, thick and fluffy American pancakes, Russian blinis, Indian pudla or dosa, Scottish drop scones or Scots pancakes, Dutch poffertjes, Taiwanese dan bing, Japanese okonomiyaki, Korean hotteok, Chinese cong you bing and more!
