History/Fun Facts About Pancakes: During the English Renaissance, people flavored their pancakes with spices, rosewater, sherry, and apples. People began using the word “pancake” during the 15th century, and the word became standard in 19th century America. Previously, people referred to them as Indian cakes, hoe cakes, johnnycakes, journey cakes, buckwheat cakes, griddle cakes, and flapjacks. Early American pancakes were made with buckwheat or cornmeal. Thomas Jefferson loved pancakes so much that he sent a special recipe from the White House to his hometown!
