The Origin of Pancakes

  

 

 I think that regular pancakes are flour, eggs, and milk mixed together. And I will put butter with maple syrup or honey, or chocolate syrup. Someone will put whipped cream or with bacon and eggs in the morning. It's thick, soft, and sweet. But, I think everyone thinks pancakes were first made in America. It's not true. They were first made in ancient Greece. Then, the pancake was made of flour, water or olive oil, and honey. There wasn't baking powder. So it's thin and not sweet. And it was cooked on a heated stone.  The picture on the right is an old Greek-style pancake. I picked it up on the Internet. There is no record of who first made pancakes. However, pancakes were written about in literature in the 16 century. In the 18 century, the recipe was written in recipe books. And in the 19 century, people everywhere started to eat them.
