Flatbreads cooked on hot stones or griddles existed in ancient civilizations. The modern pancake evolved over centuries, influenced by various European traditions like crepes and griddle cakes. The American pancake, often thicker and leavened with baking powder, became popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Pancakes are characterized by their mild, slightly sweet flavor, which serves as a blank canvas for a wide array of toppings and accompaniments.
The base flavor of a pancake comes from the simple combination of flour, eggs, milk (or buttermilk), and a touch of sugar or vanilla extract. The specific flavor profile can vary depending on the recipe; buttermilk pancakes have a tangier taste, while those made with whole wheat flour have a nuttier flavor. Toppings greatly influence the overall flavor experience, ranging from sweet syrups and fruits to savory meats and cheeses.

Don't Overmix the Batter
Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough pancakes. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined; a few lumps are okay.
Hot Griddle is Key
Ensure the griddle or pan is properly heated before adding the batter. A hot surface allows the pancakes to cook evenly and develop a golden-brown color.
Flip at the Right Time
Flip the pancake when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges appear set. Avoid flipping too early, as this can result in a flat pancake.
Keep Pancakes Warm
To keep cooked pancakes warm while you finish the batch, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a warm oven (around 200°F).
