Pancake




A pancake is a thin, flat, round cake prepared from a batter and cooked on a hot griddle or frying pan. Also known as a hotcake or flapjack. In Britain it is made without a raising agent, and is similar to a crêpe. In America, a raising agent is used typically baking powder. The American pancake is similar to a Scotch pancake or drop scone. Here, in Malaysia there is also another version eaten by Malays called apam balik which replaces the filling with sweet corn and condensed milk.


They may be served at any time with a variety of toppings or fillings including jam, fruit, syrup, chocolate chips, or meat. Now, instant pancake mix can be found in any supermarket nearby. However, some people think it tastes not so great.
