Stacks and syrup
Whether you call them hotcakes, flapjacks, griddlecakes or pancakes, one thing is guaranteed, they are delicious. Many like to eat them plain with a drizzle of syrup while others add fruit, nuts or chocolate chips. In the U.S., pancakes are most often eaten as a sweet breakfast food but can also be savory. The possibilities are endless, so open your pantry and let your imagination go.
