Pancakes have a long history, with early versions appearing in ancient Greece as 'tagenites' – griddle cakes made with wheat flour, olive oil, honey, and curdled milk. These evolved over centuries, appearing in various forms throughout Europe. The modern pancake, especially as served with maple syrup, is most strongly associated with North America, where Native Americans introduced early settlers to maple syrup as a sweetener.

The dish features a harmonious blend of sweet, buttery, and slightly tangy flavors.
The pancake itself offers a mild, slightly sweet flavor, often enhanced by vanilla extract or a hint of spice. Maple syrup contributes a distinctive, rich sweetness with subtle notes of caramel and wood. Whipped butter adds a creamy, rich, and savory element that balances the sweetness. Some pancakes incorporate buttermilk, providing a tangy counterpoint. The texture is also key, with a light, fluffy interior and a slightly crispy exterior contributing to the overall flavor profile.

Don't Overmix the Batter
Overmixing develops gluten, resulting in tough pancakes. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients until just combined, leaving some lumps.
Use a Hot Griddle
A preheated griddle or pan is essential for achieving even browning and a fluffy interior. Test the heat by sprinkling a few drops of water; they should sizzle and evaporate quickly.
Flip at the Right Time
Flip the pancake when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Cook for a shorter time on the second side.
Keep Pancakes Warm
To prevent the first pancakes from getting cold while you finish cooking the batch, keep them warm in a preheated oven (200°F/95°C) on a baking sheet.
