History of Pancakes

According to Wikipedia Pancakes began in ancient Greece and Rome, pancakes were made from wheat flour, olive oil, honey, and curdled milk. Primeval Greek poets like Cratinus and Magnes wrote about pancakes in their poems. Shakespeare even mentions them in his famed plays. During the English Resurgence pancakes were seasoned with spices, rosewater and apples.

The name “pancake” was believed to have started during the 15th century but became standard in 19th century America. Previously, they were called johnnycakes, journey cakes, buckwheat cakes, buckwheats, griddle cakes, and flapjacks. Early American version of pancakes were made of buckwheat or cornmeal. Thomas Jefferson (The 3rd US President), loved them so much he sent a special recipe to his hometown from the White House.
