Pancakes

Pancakes are a type of flat, round cake made from a batter that is cooked on a hot surface, such as a griddle or frying pan. The batter typically consists of flour, eggs, milk, and a leavening agent like baking powder, which helps the pancakes rise and become fluffy. Pancakes can be made in various sizes and thicknesses and are often served as a breakfast dish. They can also be enjoyed with a variety of toppings, including syrup, butter, fruit, whipped cream, or nuts. Variants of pancakes exist in many cultures, such as crepes, flapjacks, and hotcakes, each with unique ingredients and preparation methods.
