A Batter Worth Remembering: The Ancient Origins of Pancakes

Pancakes have been flipping onto plates for thousands of years! In fact, the oldest pancake-like dish dates back to prehistoric times. Yep, even cavemen needed their breakfast fix. Archaeologists found evidence of ground grains mixed with water, cooked on hot stones. Talk about an early morning classic!

Fast forward to Ancient Greece and Rome, and you’ll find people noshing on pancakes sweetened with honey. And let’s be honest, the Greeks really knew how to eat well.

Meanwhile, in medieval Europe, pancakes were a staple because they were easy to make and could be enjoyed with whatever ingredients were on hand.

From delicate French crêpes to fluffy Aussie stacks and hearty Russian blinis, every culture has its own take on this breakfast delight. And let’s not forget, pancakes aren’t just for mornings - Savoury meal or midnight snack, anyone?
